Anti-concurrent causation clauses (“ACC clauses”) in all-risk first-party property policies were developed to contractually exclude coverage under a policy for a loss caused by a combination of covered and excluded causes of loss. ACC clauses generally preclude coverage for a loss where an excluded peril contributes directly or indirectly to a cause of loss “regardless of any other cause or event that contributes concurrently or in any sequence to the loss.” As explained in the following excerpt from the IRMI Glossary of Insurance and Risk Management Terms, www.irmi.com, the clause applies:

If any cause of loss falls within the terms of a policy exclusion that is accompanied by ACC language, the loss will be excluded, regardless of whether another unexcluded cause of loss qualifies as the “proximate cause” under the jurisdiction's common law rules.
