I also found in NJAC 13:40-15.16, the standards of practice for
inspectors in NJ, that inspectors are required to:

(i) 1. Inspect
ii. Main disconnects, main panel and sub panels, including interior
components of main panel and sub panels;
v. Over-current protection devices and the compatibility of their
ampacity with that of the connected wiring;

(i) 2. Describe (report in writing)
iv. Predominant type of wiring;
vi. Presence of solid conductor aluminum branch circuit wiring.

Also, the standards of practice for the American Sociaety of Home
Inspectors requires that inspectors report in writing "on the presence
of solid conductor aluminum branch circuit wiring".

In addition, the Examination Board of Professional Home Inspectors
hanbook indicates that inspectors should be familiar with "Problems
with aluminum wire"

section II, Task 4, c., 4

Yes, I am obsessing about this but when you pay somebody to do a job,
they should do what they are paid to do. Especially when they are
licensed experts in a particular field.
