Hey all!
If this is in the wrong forum please move it accordingly.

So I was over at Homebuilt Help and watched a video on when to use which sleeve. The gentleman stated that bare copper and zinc plated copper were to be used on galvanized and tin plated copper on stainless. I have galvanized. But he also stated that there is some erroneous data out there. My question is, how does one tell the difference between zinc plated and tin plated. I have some cables made up already by the previous owner and I just wanted to check. Thanks!
