Undergrounding of Iberdrola and Telefónica cables
At Civiltrek Ingeniería we develop underground projects for electrical and telecommunications lines, replacing overhead installations with subway conduits that improve safety, urban aesthetics and the integration of infrastructures.
Our technical team designs the conduits, manholes and conduits necessary for the passage of electrical and telecommunications networks, complying with the technical requirements of the supplying companies such as Iberdrola or Telefónica.

Whether it is a new residential development, the construction of an industrial building or the regularization of a house, at Civiltrek Ingeniería we offer you the technical rigor you need.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Why is more and more people betting on the undergrounding of facilities?
Mainly for three reasons: safety, aesthetics and durability.
Eliminating overhead wiring reduces the exposure of the installations to external agents such as wind, falling branches or adverse weather conditions, which reduces the risk of breakdowns.
Furthermore, from an urban and landscape point of view, undergrounding significantly improves the integration of the environment, something especially valued in residential areas and quality developments.
It also provides a longer service life for the installations and reduces maintenance in the long term.
What does such a burial actually entail?
It is not just a matter of “burying cables”, but of designing and executing a complete infrastructure: conduits, manholes, mechanical protections and coordination with the supply companies.
In addition, it usually involves the removal or replacement of existing lines, adaptation of connections and, in some cases, reorganization of the network in the area.
What needs to be taken into account at the technical level?
It is essential to correctly define the piping (depth, routing, protection), as well as to provide accessible manholes for maintenance.
Coordination with other buried infrastructures such as water, sewerage or telecommunications is also key, avoiding interference and conflicting crossings.
Good planning allows each network to function independently but integrated within the whole.
What problems can arise if it is not properly raised?
From difficulties in execution (interference with other installations) to later maintenance problems, such as complicated accesses or breakdowns that are difficult to locate.
Cost overruns can also occur if the project has not been well coordinated with the supply companies or if it is necessary to redo part of the installation.
What role do companies such as Iberdrola or Telefónica have in this process?
They are key players, as they establish the technical criteria that must be met for installations to be connected to their networks.
This implies that the project must be adapted to their regulations, coordinated with their technicians and, in many cases, go through validation processes prior to execution.
Proper management at this point avoids delays and ensures that the installation is accepted without problems.
