Connect NowWhy Do Electricians Need Insurance?
Electricians work in high-risk environments where accidents, property damage, or tool theft can result in serious financial setbacks. Whether you’re working on a job site, in a client’s home, or running an electrical business, having the right insurance for an electrician ensures you’re covered against potential risks.
Common Risks for Electricians:
- Fires or electrical faults causing property damage
- Injuries from live wires or electrical installations
- Accidental damage to a customer’s home
- Tool and equipment theft
- Claims of professional negligence or faulty work
Don’t let a single incident short-circuit your business—get covered today and stay protected.
What Insurance Do Electricians Need?
Electrician Public Liability Insurance
Public liability insurance is mandatory for electricians in most Australian states. It covers legal fees and compensation costs if a third party (such as a client or supplier) claims they suffered injury or property damage due to your business activities.
Why Do You Need Public Liability Insurance?
- Required to maintain your electrical licence in many states
- Protects against claims for injuries or property damage
- Covers legal costs and compensation
- Helps secure contracts with builders and clients
Many electricians opt for at least $5 million in coverage, and in Queensland an additional Consumer Protection extension of $55,000 is required.
Business Insurance for Electricians
Business insurance provides comprehensive cover for your electrical business, including tools, stock, and premises in case of theft, fire, storm damage, or other insured events.
Business Insurance Can Cover:
- Portable equipment (tools, electrical testers, ladders, etc.)
- Business contents (stock, office furniture, and equipment)
- Loss of revenue due to business interruptions
- Tax audit and statutory liability protection
- Glass damage to commercial premises
Professional Indemnity Insurance for Electricians
If you offer electrical consultancy, compliance reports, or safety inspections, professional indemnity insurance protects you from claims of negligence, miscalculations, or incorrect advice.
What Does It Cover?
- Legal costs for defending claims of professional mistakes
- Compensation for financial loss due to errors in your advice
- Protection against claims of non-compliance in safety inspections
- Costs of legal defence for negligence claims
Personal Accident and Illness Insurance
Electricians rely on physical ability to get the job done. If an injury or illness prevents you from working, personal accident insurance provides a weekly income benefit to keep your finances stable while you recover.
Why Consider This Cover?
- Provides weekly payments if you’re injured or sick and can’t work
- Covers both work and non-work-related incidents
- Available to sole traders and self-employed electricians
- Offers lump sum payouts for permanent disablement
- Optional coverage for business expenses
Tool and Equipment Insurance
Your tools are your livelihood - protect them with tool insurance. Covers theft, loss, or damage to portable tools and specialised electrical equipment.
What’s Covered?
- Theft or accidental loss of electrical tools
- Damage due to fire or natural disasters
- Cover for workshop or on-site tools
- Optional cover for stolen or lost tools worldwide
How Much Does Electrician Insurance Cost?
The cost of electricians insurance varies depending on factors such as:
- Type of cover (Public Liability, Business, Personal Accident, etc.)
- Level of coverage (e.g., $5M, $10M, or $20M public liability)
- Risk exposure (high-risk vs. low-risk electrical work)
- Claims history and business size
- Whether additional add-ons like tool cover are included
On average, electricians pay $500 to $2,500 per year for comprehensive insurance. Getting multiple quotes ensures you receive the best price for the coverage you need.
