What it covers for electrical contractors

Inland marine insures movable business property — contractor equipment and property in transit — wherever the work is. For an electrician that means the testers, benders, and power tools riding in the van and sitting on open job sites rather than at a fixed premises. An electrician's tools live in the van and on customer job sites — inland marine is the property line built to follow them.
