[QUOTE="04DeadShort, post: 16646628, member: 70813"] The short answer is yes you can. The #4 gauge has the same ampacity as #6 copper. I recommend using Polaris insulated connectors at your joint connection. [URL='https://polarisconnectors.com/index.html']Manufacturer of Aluminum and Copper set screw connectors for the Utility, OEM, and Contractor and Industrial Markets[/URL] Also I want you to consider this. Some wire is not allowable by code to be used inside a household. The insulation lacks the flame retardant that is required to be used in household. An example is SER (service entrance cable style R) has the flame retardant and is allowable. MHF (mobile home feeder) does not have it and not allowed inside a house. The issue is not the conductor (copper or aluminum) it's the insulation. The type of wire you have should be printed on the wire itself. A quick search will tell you if it is allowable or not.
