as an operating cause; (actual)

Alcaraz & Hughes' ES/EN dictionary, typically suggests 'yer' actual damage translation plus. oddly, general damages for the compensatory context of daños (y perjuicios) efectivos.

Operative damage might suggest surgically pre- or-post op. injuries, though an 'operative date of death' is a term of art to describe an actual or presumed date of death triggering a right of succession.
Example sentence:

There is a gradually operating cause exclusion of the `peril which excludes any claim where damage has occurred over a period of time.
