By using OffGrid Current, you agree to these terms. They should be reviewed by a qualified adviser before relying on them for legal compliance.

Information, not professional advice

Our guides, runtime estimates and calculators are for general information and planning. They aren't electrical, engineering, medical or legal advice. Runtime figures are estimates and real results vary. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for your equipment.

Safety

  • Use a licensed electrician to connect any power source to your home's electrical system. Never back-feed power through a household outlet.
  • For medical devices, confirm power requirements with your device's documentation and your healthcare provider or equipment supplier, and keep a backup plan for life-critical equipment.
  • Never run a fuel-burning generator indoors or in an enclosed space.

Accuracy

We work to keep information accurate and current, but specifications, prices and availability change and errors can happen. See our corrections policy.

Some links take you to retailers or other websites we don't control. We earn commissions on some purchases (see our affiliate disclosure). Purchases are between you and the retailer, under the retailer's terms.

Intellectual property

Our text, illustrations, charts and calculators are our own work, and you may not republish them without permission. Brief quotes with a link back are welcome. Product names and trademarks belong to their owners and are used only to identify products.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we're not liable for losses arising from the use of our site or reliance on its content.

Changes

We may update these terms and will revise the date at the top when we do.
