B.When the contractor begins work or unloading of first materials at the site
C.Upon handover of the completed project to the principal

A.To extend the construction period due to delays
B.To pay for the routine maintenance and servicing of construction equipment
C.To cover inherent defects in materials that existed before construction

Explanation: The maintenance visits cover is designed to protect against loss or damage caused by the insured contractor in the course of the operations carried out for the purpose of complying with the maintenance obligations.
5Under an Erection All Risks (EAR) policy, testing and commissioning is a critical phase. Which of the following best describes the typical coverage during this period?

B.Coverage is restricted to external perils like fire and lightning only.
C.Coverage applies only if a separate machinery breakdown policy is purchased simultaneously.

B.Existing structures belonging to the principal

B.Advance Loss of Profits
C.Additional Liability On Premises
D.Accidental Loss of Property
Explanation: ALOP stands for Advance Loss of Profits, also known as Delay in Start-Up (DSU) insurance.

B.A delay caused by a physical damage event that is covered under the material damage (CAR/EAR) policy
C.A delay caused by the contractor's financial insolvency
D.Any delay in the project completion, regardless of the cause
Explanation: ALOP/DSU policies only trigger if the delay in commercial operation is a direct result of a physical loss or damage that is indemnifiable under the associated CAR/EAR material damage policy.
9In an ALOP policy, what is the 'Time Excess' or 'Franchise'?
A.The period during which the contractor must prove their loss
B.The initial period of delay (e.g., 14 or 30 days) for which the insurer is not liable to pay
C.The maximum time the project can run before the policy is voided
D.The extra time granted by the insurer to complete the project without paying additional premium
Explanation: The Time Excess (deductible) in ALOP means the insurer does not pay for the loss of gross profit for the specified initial number of days of the delay.

A.The dismantling of the machinery for scrap
B.The initial installation and erection phase
C.Normal working, resting, or maintenance operations after successful commissioning
D.Transit from the manufacturer to the operational site
