I have seen stainless steel cause tremendous corrosion to aluminum in a 
corrosive atmosphere however  I have not seen any reaction between 
galvanized steel and aluminum.  I suppose anything is possible.  Zinc and 
aluminum are not that far apart on the galvanic chart.

I would also add, that if you are going to guy with galvanized EHS,  put
the wire inside a piece of hose so the aluminum does not touch the guy 
wire.
If they touch, you will have galvanic action on the aluminum...not a  good
thing.
