Engineering Inspection An Engineering Inspection contract is for the inspection or thorough examination of plant and machinery only. Insurance cover is available for the inspected items of plant and machinery. Inspection is usually requested because there is a statutory requirement for many types of plant and machinery to be inspected at certain intervals, such as every 6 months or 12 months. However, an insured might also ask for other machinery to be inspected even if there is no statutory requirement. Engineering Insurance Summary of Insurance Cover What does the policy cover?
