The Claim
CATS engineers attended a site to investigate the cause of multiple lighting failures. Upon inspection it was determined that the failures were linked to a power supply failure. However, these power supplies could not be repaired as the model had been discontinued. Additionally, the engineers identified several C2 faults due to incorrect original installation. Further inspection revealed water marks on the light globes in the main areas of the building, indicating potential damage as a contributing factor to the lighting failures. This observation was consistent with signs of previous water damage in other parts of the property.
The Resolution
Given the unavailability of the parts an longevity concerns, the lighting system was considered beyond repair. Due to CATS negotiation achievements costs were reduced significantly, the insurers were able to cash settle with a £30,000 saving.
