Investing in industrial machinery can be quite expensive; therefore, ensuring adequate protection is important. Machinery Breakdown Insurance protects against accidents and sudden breakdowns of machinery due to mechanical and electrical defects which need immediate repair or replacement. Whether you own compressors, turbines, hydraulic cylinders, steam engines, electric machinery or manufacturing equipment, the insurance covers your losses due to short circuits, material defect, too much voltage, abnormal conditions, collision, bursting equipment and mistakes during operations. You may further cover for air freight, express freight, liability and property damage cover in case of any mishaps to neighboring property. Although the policy doesn’t cover wear and tear, loss of or damage by theft, fires at neighboring property and willful negligence, it is an excellent way of safeguarding your machine from breakdown.
