17 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com #1-- Understanding the limitations in the Commercial Property Form that require the addition of Equipment Breakdown Insurance 17

18 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Background  Previously Boiler & Machinery  Currently referred to Equipment Breakdown which is a much more generic and all encompassing term 18

19 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Polling Question #1 19

20 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Air Conditioning Unit Your insured has an air conditioning unit on the top of their processing building that malfunctioned causing damage to the unit and resultant power loss that resulted in a business income claim. How is this loss covered? 20

21 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Why is Equipment Breakdown Coverage Necessary (MES) It is all about the “perils” that cause the loss 21 Electrical Mechanical Direct Damage Spoilage Boilers Business Income

22 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Also Excluded (S) Spoilage (Not Specifically Excluded Dampness or dryness of atmosphere Changes in temperature or extremes of heat or cold, including freezing – Example - Dairies or Refrigerated lockers particular have very large refrigeration systems that are often ammonia based. If the system malfunctions; ammonia could leak with the result of spoilage and ammonia contamination—the loss would NOT be covered on the property form. This would be covered on an EB Form with Spoilage.

23 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Polling Question #2 23

24 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Loss of Farm Medication and Vaccines The insured had a power outage that lasted 8 hours due to excessive heat and lack of generating capacity.

25 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Property vs EB Considerations There are some important considerations as to whether to write certain coverages on EB or on a different form: – Spoilage (in the Property Series) – Computers (Inland Marine) 25

26 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Spoilage A VERY important coverage for the agricultural risk – Spoilage to Product – Spoilage to Medicines – Spoilage to Semen 26

27 Insurance Community University www.InsuranceCommunityUniversity.com Definition (Spoilage) "Perishable stock" means personal property: (IMPORTANT DEFINITION) a.Maintained under controlled conditions for its preservation; and b.Susceptible to loss or damage if the controlled conditions change 27
