Time Element (time Policy) Coverage
Insurance that covers an indirect loss stemming from a direct loss by a covered peril to income-producing property. A building destroyed by fire represents a direct loss. Lost income resulting from the shutdown of a manufacturing facility housed in the burned building represents an indirect time element loss and would be covered by business interruption insurance, a form of time element insurance.
