34+ years protecting PNW contractors A-rated carriers 🔌 Electrical trade specialists

Electrical contractors carry risks most policies weren't written for — arc-flash injuries, design and load-calculation errors, and callbacks on completed installations that surface months later. First Underwriters has protected Pacific Northwest electricians since 1992, building programs that cover liability, completed operations, equipment, and your crew from the shop to the job site.

    Descriptions are general summaries for education and are not legal, tax, or coverage advice, nor a statement of coverage, an offer, or a binder; the coverage builder is a starting point for discussion rather than a quote or coverage determination. The scenarios and dollar figures shown are illustrative examples, not guarantees or representations about specific businesses; actual coverage, limits, and eligibility are governed solely by the terms, conditions, and exclusions of your issued policies and are subject to underwriting.
