Valencia is one of the main industrial powerhouses in the Valencian Community. Its business parks and economic activity zones are home to thousands of companies that depend on reliable, safe and correctly sized electrical installations to keep their operations running.
At Acoval, based in the La Lloma Industrial Park in Aldaia, we have been carrying out industrial electrical installations in Valencia and its metropolitan area for over 15 years. Our proximity allows us to offer fast response times and first-hand knowledge of the requirements in each zone.
Key industrial areas in Valencia
Vara de Quart Business Park
Located on the boundary between Valencia and Quart de Poblet, Vara de Quart is one of the city’s most established industrial areas. It hosts companies from sectors as diverse as logistics, food processing, metalworking and machinery manufacturing.
Electrical installations in Vara de Quart present specific challenges: many units date from the 1980s and 1990s, with electrical panels that need upgrading to comply with the current REBT (Low Voltage Electrical Regulations). In addition, successive machinery expansions often push installations to the limit of their capacity, requiring a complete redesign.
Fuente del Jarro (Paterna)
Although it administratively belongs to Paterna, Fuente del Jarro is a reference point for the entire Valencia metropolitan area. With more than 600 companies and a strong presence of industrial SMEs, demand for well-executed electrical installations is constant.
Mechanical workshops, plastics manufacturers, chemical companies and machinery makers operating here require robust three-phase power supplies, surge protection and capacitor banks for reactive power compensation.
From Aldaia, our technical team reaches Fuente del Jarro in just 10 minutes, enabling us to respond to electrical emergencies quickly.
Applicable regulations for industrial installations
Every industrial electrical installation in Valencia must comply with the Low Voltage Electrical Regulations (REBT) and their Complementary Technical Instructions. In particular:
- Approved technical project: mandatory for installations exceeding 100 kW or supplying premises at risk of fire or explosion.
- OCA inspection: industrial installations require an initial and periodic inspection by an Authorised Control Body. In the Valencian Community, the scope and deadlines are regulated by the Regional Ministry of Industry.
- Reactive power compensation: essential in warehouses with motors and compressors to avoid penalties on the electricity bill.
Furthermore, Valencian businesses are subject to the Technical Building Code (CTE) when carrying out refurbishments that affect the building envelope, which may require the installation of photovoltaic self-consumption systems.
Electrical services for Valencia’s industry
At Acoval, we offer a comprehensive industrial electrical service covering:
- New installations: from design and calculation through to approval and commissioning.
- Extensions and refurbishments: adapting existing installations to the REBT, power upgrades and new circuits.
- Custom electrical panels: manufactured in-house at our 1,200 m2 workshop in Aldaia, with full quality control.
- Preventive maintenance: periodic inspections, thermographic surveys, protection checks and earth continuity testing.
- Emergency response: rapid service for breakdowns that halt production, with travel times under 20 minutes to most Valencia business parks.
Why choose a local installer
Proximity is a critical factor in industrial electrical installations. A local team understands the particularities of each area, maintains direct relationships with local control bodies and can respond to breakdowns without the delays of a long journey.
From Aldaia, we serve the entire Valencia metropolitan area with response times that make a real difference when a production line goes down due to an electrical fault.
If you need a new electrical installation, an extension or a review of your existing system, get in touch with our technical team via our contact page. We offer a no-obligation initial assessment.
