Disclaimers
Last Updated: January 5, 2026
This page contains important disclaimers regarding Tereda Software LLC's products and services. Please read these disclaimers carefully before using any of our applications or services.
Critical Safety Warning
Electrical work is inherently dangerous. Improper electrical work can result in fire, electrocution, property damage, serious injury, or death. Our applications are reference tools designed to assist qualified professionals—they are NOT a substitute for proper training, licensing, professional judgment, or compliance with all applicable codes and regulations.
If you are not a licensed, qualified electrical professional, do not attempt electrical work. Always hire a licensed electrician for electrical installations and repairs.
1. General Disclaimer
The information provided through Tereda Software's applications, websites, and services (collectively, "Services") is for general informational and reference purposes only. While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information, products, services, or related graphics contained in our Services.
Any reliance you place on information from our Services is strictly at your own risk.
2. ZAFTO Electrical Application Disclaimer
2.1 Reference Tool Only
ZAFTO Electrical is a reference application only. It is designed to provide quick access to electrical calculations, code references, wiring diagrams, and related information. ZAFTO is NOT:
- A replacement for the National Electrical Code (NEC) codebook;
- A substitute for professional electrical training or education;
- A replacement for engineering calculations by licensed professionals;
- A substitute for local code compliance verification;
- A replacement for inspections by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ);
- A professional engineering or design tool;
- A safety device or safety verification system.
2.2 Code Compliance Disclaimer
IMPORTANT: The National Electrical Code (NEC) is adopted differently by each state, county, municipality, and jurisdiction. Many jurisdictions adopt specific versions of the NEC (not necessarily the latest version) and may include local amendments that modify requirements.
Information in ZAFTO is based on the NEC 2026 standard unless otherwise noted. Your jurisdiction may use a different code version and may have additional requirements not reflected in our application. Always verify all requirements with your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) before performing any electrical work.
2.3 Calculation Accuracy Disclaimer
While we have made reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of calculations in ZAFTO, all calculations should be independently verified before use. Calculation results are provided for reference purposes only and should not be used as the sole basis for design decisions, material selection, or installation practices.
Users are responsible for:
- Verifying all calculations against authoritative sources;
- Ensuring input values are correct and appropriate;
- Understanding the limitations and assumptions of each calculation;
- Applying appropriate safety factors and professional judgment;
- Confirming results with the applicable code book.
2.4 Wiring Diagrams Disclaimer
Wiring diagrams in ZAFTO are provided for educational and reference purposes only. They represent typical configurations and may not reflect:
- Local code requirements or amendments;
- Specific manufacturer requirements;
- Site-specific conditions or requirements;
- All possible configurations or variations;
- Requirements for specific equipment or installations.
Always consult manufacturer instructions, local codes, and qualified professionals when planning electrical installations.
2.5 Phone Sensor Tools Disclaimer
Any sensor-based tools in ZAFTO (such as stud finders, EMF detectors, or level tools) use your phone's built-in sensors and are provided for convenience only. These tools are:
- NOT calibrated precision instruments;
- NOT safety devices;
- NOT replacements for professional-grade tools;
- NOT to be relied upon for safety-critical decisions.
Never rely on phone-based sensor tools to determine whether electrical circuits are energized. Always use properly rated test equipment (such as a non-contact voltage tester or multimeter) and follow appropriate safety procedures.
