The Electrical Survival Playbook ("the book") and this website are provided for educational purposes only and do not constitute professional electrical, engineering, or safety advice. Nothing here should be treated as a substitute for the judgment of a licensed electrician evaluating your specific home, panel, or wiring in person.
Electrical work carries an inherent risk of injury, death, fire, and property damage. Roy Dalton Electric and the author make no warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness, accuracy, or applicability of the information in the book or on this site, and assume no liability for any injury, loss, or damage resulting from actions taken based on their contents.
The book's safety walkthrough and panel-reading chapters are designed as visual, external observation only. They do not qualify a reader to open a panel, remove a cover, or test a live circuit. Nothing in the book should be read as an instruction to perform work beyond what is explicitly described as safe for homeowner observation. Any work involving energized components, a service panel, generators, EV charging circuits, or a licensed-trade requirement should be performed only by a qualified, licensed electrician.
Electrical codes, permit requirements, and utility procedures vary by jurisdiction and change over time. Always verify local code and obtain any required permits before electrical work is performed. Pricing figures referenced in the book and on this site reflect typical U.S. residential ranges as of 2026 and will vary by market.
By purchasing, reading, or otherwise using the book or this site, you acknowledge that you do so at your own risk and assume full responsibility for how the contents are applied in your home.
The book is covered by a seven-day, no-questions refund — reply to your purchase receipt and it will be honored in full.
