Join Jonathan Levy of Cozen O’Connor and Brian Churchwell of Churchwell Fire Consultants for an examination of the investigation and subrogation of structure and wildfire losses caused by open, dropped, or high-resistance neutral conditions on electric utility distribution systems.
The webinar will explore how neutral conductor failures create overvoltage, glowing connections, and diverted return currents that can lead to ignition and significant property damage. Presenters will discuss the critical first steps in a loss investigation, including scene response, evidence preservation, and strategies for protecting potential subrogation claims.
In addition, the presentation will examine utility-side and customer-side failure points, warning signs that may establish notice before a fire occurs, and liability theories involving utilities, contractors, and equipment manufacturers. Attendees will also gain practical insight into applicable industry standards, common utility defenses, and key factors for evaluating the viability of a subrogation claim.
