â¢ Artificially Generated Electricity. It's important to note that both Basic and Broad Form coverage policies ONLY cover named perils. In other words, if it's not named as a cause of loss, it's not covered. The most expansive form of insurance coverage is usually within the Special Form policies. In policies that use the special form type of coverage, instead of the perils covered being listed, the EXCLUSIONS are listed. In other words, unless the policy states a peril isn't included, it's included and your potential loss is covered. Usually, but not always, the special form is the one you want to buy.
