What protections does small electrical business insurance offer?

Small business electrical insurance may offer a variety of coverages, each of which may protect against different risks. Both liability coverages and property coverages are usually available.

Liability coverages normally protect against various lawsuits that might be filed against an electrical contractor, often paying legal fees and settlements for covered suits. Some common liability protections that policies frequently make available are:

General Liability Coverage: Could protect against basic accidents that result in third-party injuries or property damage, and may also apply if sued for defamation. Accidents are primarily commonplace accidents, like falls, and not car accidents.
Commercial Auto Coverage: Could protect against car accidents that a work van or truck is involved in. Other events that cause damage to a work vehicle, such as theft or hitting an animal, might also be covered.
Errors and Omissions Coverage: Could protect against any property damage that’s the result of a mistake when working, and would likely also cover mistakes made when giving advice to customers.
Commercial Umbrella Coverage: Could protect against more expensive lawsuits if they exceed another liability protection’s limit.

Property coverages are normally for what an electrical contractor owns. This could be a building, equipment, or other items. There are a few property coverages that small electrical business policies frequently make available:
