From my Breaker Box's 50A-240 breaker there is aluminum cable running to my oven. The aluminum cable has two hot leads and a bare aluminum neutral. The old oven pigtail had two hot leads, a white neutral and a separate green ground. Both the white neutral and the green ground were attached to the bare aluminum neutral wire from the supply lines.
1. Is this attachment of both the neutral and ground wire from the appliance to the supply neutral an appropriate connection?
2. The supply is aluminum, and the pigtail is copper. What is the proper way to connect these wires together?
3. We are replacing a double oven (with one pigtail) with a separate microwave and separate oven. Can both of these appliances be attached to the 50A single supply, or do they need separate breakers and supply lines?
