Plan d'Assurance Sécurité for an IT system.
It's mainly about IT security, but there is then this paragraph:
"Protection contre les accidents et évènements naturels
FOURNISSEUR met en œuvre les moyens de protection de ses locaux d’hébergement et de secours lui permettant de faire face à un évènement naturel ou accidentel pouvant affecter la disponibilité de son système information et celui hébergeant la Solution.
Sont notamment couverts les risques d’incendie, d’inondation, de foudre, de rupture d’alimentation électrique, de climatisation et d’induction réseau."

induction surge in the network
Lightning can result in a power surge in cables, for example by induction.
The list is a bit strange, as it refers to 'risque de climatisation', which is not usually a risk. They presumably mean 'risque de rupture de climatisation'.
It is possible that they intended to say 'risque de rupture de réseau', but then 'induction' has no function.
It would be a good idea to clarify this with the client.

As Daryo has pointed out, 'réseau' can also mean 'power grid'. Both the grid and a computer network could carry an induced current and/or be damaged. If there is no clarification in the text, we'd need to include both.

: I'm not a native speaker, but I think it should possibly read "rupture d’alimentation électrique ET de climatisation, et d’induction réseau."

Thanks. Yes, that's what I presume it should have said.

Daryo
: there is NO MISTAKE - it is about induction currents as a source of disruption, but here "réseau" is the "network" supplying electrical power // THAT could be a source of "induction currents", not the computer network itself.

The list is not correctly written (omission of 'rupture' before 'climatisation). But 'réseau' could mean either the power grid or a computer network or both; both could carry induced current and/or be damaged.

network induction
It's about insurance which covers and protects accommodation in case of unforeseen natural accidents.
Example sentence:
Risks of fire, flood, lightning, electric power cuts, air conditioning and network induction are thoroughly covered.
Sont notamment couverts les risques d'incendie, d'inondation, de foudre, de rupture d'alimentation éléctrique, de climatisation et d'induction réseau.

power induction surge
réseau = the grid / the power supply coming from the mains
induction = induction currents (creating a damaging surge)
. These product families help provide protection against power cross and power induction surge as defined in ITU, Telcordia, and UL.

theoretically the "induction currents" could also be generated by something on-site, but hardly any on-site equipment could produce the kind of "induced currents" generated by a lightning near or on the power grid. The difference is of several orders of magnitude.

Discussion
les risques
-- d’incendie,
-- d’inondation,
-- de foudre,
-- de rupture d’alimentation électrique,
-- (de rupture) de climatisation [répétition implicite de "(risque) de rupture ...] et
-- d’induction réseau
Deux types de risques:
incendie, inondation, foudre, induction réseau => à éviter
alimentation électrique, climatisation => doivent être maintenus, la rupture est à éviter.
The source of "induction currents" that could cause serious troubles would be the mains/the power supply from the grid, far more likely than anything on site.
