Coverage checklist for EV charging networks, site hosts, and installers. Priorities reflect typical exposure; confirm against sites.
Tick each coverage you can confirm you carry — anything left unticked is a good question for your next policy review.

|---|---|---|---|
| Equipment / Property (incl. Theft & Vandalism) | Covers chargers and cables — confirm theft and vandalism aren't excluded or sublimited. | Core | |
| Business Income (Downtime) | Covers lost charging revenue while stations are offline. | Prevalent | |
| General Liability | Covers driver trips, falls, and injuries at sites. | Core | |
| Cyber Liability | Covers payment data and network attacks on chargers. | Core | |
| Products & Completed Operations | Needed if the company installs chargers for others. | Situational | |

The coverage gap most often missed
The most commonly missed gap for this class is theft and downtime. Cable theft for copper has become routine at many networks, and some property forms exclude or limit vandalism — while each outage costs repair plus lost sessions. Operators should confirm theft and vandalism coverage, add business income for downtime, and install cut-resistant cables and alarms.
