Standard property policies do provide coverage for the structure, contents, and potential loss of revenue in the event of a loss. However, equipment breakdown is often times excluded. To avoid a coverage gap, property owners also need an Equipment Breakdown policy. Systems breakdown insurance policies are designed to cover the loss of equipment and systems installed in buildings.

EQUIPMENT BREAKDOWN COVERAGE
The Equipment Breakdown policy covers loss and damage to insured equipment and resulting loss of revenue (Business Income) while the equipment is being repaired or replaced. Normal wear and tear is not a part of the coverage.
The policy can be endorsed to include Contingent Business Income. This covers you in the event a critical component of your business e.g., a vendor or supplier can’t meet their obligations you the insured due to a mechanical breakdown of their own. The 2011 Icelandic Volcano:-
The eruption, which began Wednesday, already is causing massive dislocation across Europe. By late Sunday, more than 63,000 flights had been canceled in 23 European countries, stifling the lifeblood of the continent’s economy. Because few planes are flying, travelers can’t travel, machinery parts can’t get to factories, food sellers can’t transport their goods, and businesses are finding business increasingly difficult to conduct.
The economic ripples are being felt worldwide. In the USA, air carriers canceled 310 flights to and from Europe on Sunday, according to the Air Transport Association, which represents most major U.S. airlines. Because of the volcano, Kenya‘s hothouse flowers — responsible for 20% of that African nation’s exports — are rotting in warehouses rather than winging their way to Europe.
