Businesses often invest substantial capital in acquiring and maintaining machinery, where any downtime can lead to significant income loss.


We offer a Machinery Breakdown policy to protect machinery while in operation, at rest, during dismantling for moving, under repair, cleaning, re-erection and installation. This policy also covers steam explosions and mechanical and electrical breakdowns, which are not typically included under a standard “All-Risk” property policy.

Scope of Coverage

The Machinery Breakdown insurance protects against

Losses due to electrical breakdowns

Losses due to accidental damages to the equipment

Liability for covered losses to the property of others in your care, custody or control

Costs of hiring temporary machinery

Repair or replacement costs for damaged property

Cover Benefits

  • Business Interruption

  • Extra Expenses

  • Machinery Loss of Profit (MLOP)

Ensure your business operations remain uninterrupted and protected against machinery breakdowns with Cannon General Insurance’s tailored solutions.
