DEF

[Riesgo] que, aun siendo independiente, está en contacto con otro, por lo que el siniestro que afecte a uno de ellos puede transmitirse al otro. Tal sería, por ejemplo, el caso de dos edificios separados por un muro medianero.

OBS

Éste es un aspecto importante en la tarificación, por ejemplo, de un riesgo de incendio, ya que la reducida peligrosidad de un edificio destinado a vivienda puede alterarse, agravandóse, si en el edificio contiguo está instalada una fábrica de productos fácilmente inflamables.
