Gradually Operating Cause Clause Samples
The 'Gradually Operating Cause' clause defines and limits coverage for losses or damages that occur slowly over time rather than from a single, identifiable event. In practice, this clause typically excludes insurance claims arising from issues like rust, corrosion, wear and tear, or gradual water seepage, as these develop incrementally rather than suddenly. Its core function is to clarify the insurer's responsibility by excluding long-term, progressive damage, thereby ensuring that coverage is reserved for sudden and unforeseen incidents rather than ongoing maintenance issues.
