What Kinds of Risks are Covered by Insurance for Electricians?
Insurance for an electrician is absolutely essential, given the many risks they face. It's not uncommon for workers in this industry to be injured, so workers’ comp is crucial. Accidental fires and tool theft or damage should be covered by a business owners policy or BOP (also called property & liability insurance). A commercial auto policy is important as you drive from job to job. And, many projects and job sites require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) for electricians, which is available online as soon as you purchase an electrician insurance policy from us.

What are the Different Types of Electrician Insurance?
At biBERK, we offer six different types of insurance for electrician business owners like you. Depending on the location of your business and other factors, certain types might be better for you than others.
Workers' Compensation insurance
This insurance helps protect your business if an employee is injured, contracts an illness, or dies as a result of an incident on the job. A workers’ comp policy can cover medical costs, legal fees, and lost wages due to the injury.
Workers' Compensationchevron_rightGeneral Liability insurance
Also known as commercial liability insurance, a general liability policy is important, because general contractors and landlords often require a policy before they hire you. The policy covers damages and legal costs associated with injury claims by customers and other people you don't employ, damage to other people's property that was caused by your business, and medical costs associated with these incidents. It also covers libel, slander, and copyright infringement. Plus, there are endorsements you can add to customize your electrician insurance policy, including contractors installation, tools & equipment, cyber, hired and non-owned auto liability, employment-related practices liability, and employee benefits liability.
General Liabilitychevron_rightBusiness Owners Policy
Also called property & liability insurance, a business owners policy (BOP) combines general liability insurance with coverage for your company’s property. You'll get protection for the building you own, space you lease, and any property needed to run your business, while also receiving coverage for things like business interruption. This can replace lost income, as well as cover other costs associated with getting your business back up and running after suffering property damage, such as the use of a temporary location. You can also tailor your BOP to create the best insurance for electrician businesses with add-ons for contractors installation, tools & equipment, cyber, hired and non-owned auto liability, employment-related practices liability, and employee benefits liability.
Business Owners Policychevron_rightCommercial Auto insurance
If your company owns or leases vehicles, this policy protects your business. This type of insurance can provide coverage for your legal fees and the medical costs of others if your employee is at fault in an accident. It can cover the cost of damages even if the vehicle is used for personal activities outside of its primary business use.
Commercial Autochevron_rightCyber insurance
This coverage can be purchased as an add-on to a general liability, professional liability, or BOP policy. It helps cover costs related to system hacks or data security breaches in which sensitive information has been stolen and fraud has occurred or there is a reasonable expectation that it might occur.
Cyber Insurancechevron_rightUmbrella insurance
Every insurance policy you purchase has a maximum value that it will cover in the event of an incident. Umbrella insurance adds another layer of protection: it can cover costs that exceed the limit of another liability policy, subject to its own limit. Without it, you may be responsible for anything over your policy limit. Business liability suits can easily exceed the actual value of many small businesses, so we highly recommend an umbrella policy to protect your company.
