About, Terms of Use & Disclaimer

1. Acceptance

By opening or using the Morningstar Electric LLC Tool Kit (the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the App.

2. Reference and educational use by qualified persons only

The App provides calculators, summaries and how-to guides for general reference and educational purposes. It is intended for use only by qualified persons — licensed electricians and trained individuals who have the skills and knowledge to perform electrical work and recognize its hazards. The App does not replace training, licensing, supervision, or professional judgment.

3. Not professional advice; no professional relationship

Nothing in the App is engineering, design, legal, or code-compliance advice, and no output is a stamped or certified calculation. Using the App does not create a contractor, engineer, consultant, attorney, or any other professional or client relationship between you and Morningstar Electric LLC.

4. Your responsibility to verify

You are solely responsible for verifying every result against the edition of the National Electrical Code® (NFPA 70®) and any state or local amendments adopted where the work is performed, the manufacturer's installation instructions and listing, the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ), and the actual site conditions. Code adoption varies by state and locality. The App may not reflect your adopted edition, local amendments, or the latest changes.

5. Assumption of risk

Electrical work is inherently hazardous and can cause electric shock, arc flash, burns, fire, property damage, serious injury, or death. You assume all risk from any work you perform or direct. You agree to follow NFPA 70E® and applicable OSHA requirements, use lockout/tagout procedures and appropriate PPE, test before touch, and comply with all licensing, permitting, and inspection laws.

6. No warranty

THE APP AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MORNINGSTAR ELECTRIC LLC DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, AND AVAILABILITY. Morningstar Electric LLC does not warrant that results are error-free, that tables and summaries are current, or that the App will be uninterrupted or free of defects.

7. Accuracy and updates not guaranteed

Tables, formulas, default values, prices, utility rates, and third-party procedures may contain errors or become outdated. Morningstar Electric LLC may change, update, or discontinue any part of the App at any time without notice and has no obligation to update it.

8. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MORNINGSTAR ELECTRIC LLC AND ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS, FIRE, EQUIPMENT DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, DELAYS, REWORK, FAILED INSPECTIONS, CODE VIOLATIONS, FINES, OR CLAIMS BY THIRD PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP OR ITS USE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF MORNINGSTAR ELECTRIC LLC FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO USE THE APP, WHICH IS $0 FOR THE FREE APP. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.

9. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Morningstar Electric LLC and its owners, members, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the App, work you perform or direct, or your violation of these Terms or any law.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Florida, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

12. Severability and entire agreement

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the remaining provisions remain in full effect. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and Morningstar Electric LLC regarding the App. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

13. Changes to these Terms

Morningstar Electric LLC may update these Terms. When the version changes, the App will ask you to accept the new Terms before continuing.
