Does Renters Insurance Cover Accidental DamageTo A TV? 
Your TV would only be covered for named perils in your policy . Things like Fire , Lightning , Wind , Theft and other natural perils . As a rule accidental damage would not be covered . Keep in mind too that your renters insurance has a deductible , so if your deductible is close to the cost of replacing the TV then it may not be to your advantage to turn in a claim anyway .
