What is Electrician Insurance?

Electrical work is dangerous. It is possible to make an error that causes injuries to your property or personal injury. Even worse, you could face costly legal action.
Electrical contractor insurance offers insurance against financial losses that may be devastating caused by accidents, damage to property, or other risks.

(Electrical contractor insurance is used to describe the various kinds of insurance you could consider protecting your Delaware electrical business.)

Why do Delaware electricians need insurance?

If you’re an electrician, working with electrical systems could be hazardous in Delaware. Every electrician has a risk of fires, injuries from live wires, as well as accidental damage to the client’s property.
Delaware electricians have business insurance to help them to protect themselves from the risks that electricians confront. Without different types of insurance coverage, you may be responsible for expensive legal fees, compensation payments, and other unexpected bills that could drain your bank accounts.

What insurance do electricians need in Delaware?

You have the option of choosing between different types of insurance as an electrician. BizInsure offers a range of insurance options for electricians at affordable rates.

General Liability Insurance

General Liability insurance protects you against claims by an outside party regarding injury or damage to their property. In these instances, your policy will cover your legal expenses as well as your cost to replace or remedy the situation up to the limits of liability.

For many electricians it is essential to have this coverage. This protects the electrical contractor against lawsuits or other financial liability arising from accidents. The coverage covers:

  • Property damage caused to third parties
  • Injuries to third parties

Electrician General Liability insurance provides coverage whether a claim is legitimate.

Business Owners Insurance

Business Owners Policy (BOP) is a convenient and affordable way for small business owners to protect against several of their most common exposures. These policies combine General Liability insurance with other types of coverage, such as business interruption and business property damage.

Professional Liability insurance

Professional Liability insurance provides Delaware businesses with protection against claims of negligence, misrepresentations, or mistakes. Professional Liability claims are typically made by clients who allege some form of financial damage as a result of your services, products or employees.

Also known as Errors & Omissions, (E&O), is designed to protect your business against losses resulting from mistakes or negligence made during the performance of services.

Professional Liability insurance covers incidents like:

  • Not giving the correct advice to customers about accessibility or other standards in the building
  • The work you have done is flawed and will make it necessary for the client to pay to purchase new materials or labor
  • You’re accused of being negligent by a customer, even if this isn’t true

Workers Compensation Insurance

Workers’ Compensation insurance protects Delaware electrical contractors and their employees. If any of your employees get injured at work or are ill, this type of insurance will cover their medical bills. It will also cover some of their lost income if they’re unable to work because of the injury, as well as rehabilitation or physical therapy to transition the employee back into the workplace.
Delaware law mandates that employers with at least one employee need to have Workers’ Compensation coverage.

Insurance for Tools and Equipment

Electrical contractors in Delaware must have the right tools and equipment to succeed.

You can be financially protected from unexpected incidents by purchasing tools and equipment insurance.

Cyber Liability Insurance

Electrical contractors must be aware of cyber security risks. Data breaches are on the rise in the modern age. Cyber Liability insurance covers the cost of resolving data breaches, including legal fees and credit monitoring for the affected, and notification costs.

How much does insurance for electricians cost in Delaware?
