§ 45.02.510. Effect of breach on risk of loss.

 (a) If a tender or delivery of goods so fails to conform to the contract as to give a right of rejection, the risk of their loss remains on the seller until cure or acceptance.

 (b) If the buyer rightfully revokes acceptance, the buyer may, to the extent of a deficiency in the buyer's effective insurance coverage, treat the risk of loss as having rested on the seller from the beginning.
