Re: about screws

They don't make the screws out of nickel. They plate them with it. Often to denote neutral from hot screws. The hots are left brass or plated brass. Nickel plate looks like chrome. It sounds bright IMO. Some outlets have brass screws but the backing plate they go into are steel. You find this on outlets with both side and back wire attach points. Try to find a all brass outlet.
