FAQ

Common Questions About Electricians Insurance

What makes electrician insurance different from general contractor coverage?

Electrician insurance is specifically rated for electrical work risks like fires, shocks, and power surges. Your classification code reflects these higher hazards, but specialized carriers understand your business and offer competitive rates with proper coverage.

Do I need professional liability as an electrician?

If you design electrical systems, provide engineering services, or offer consultations, professional liability is important. It covers errors in your professional advice or design work that general liability excludes.

How can I reduce my electrician insurance premiums?

Safety programs, continuing education, proper licensing, and membership in professional associations can reduce premiums. Using circuit testers, lockout/tagout procedures, and maintaining a clean claims history also help lower costs.

What about coverage for solar panel installations?

Solar work often requires additional coverage due to roof work and new technology risks. We can add solar installation endorsements to your policy or arrange specialized coverage for this growing market segment.
