Adequacy of safety and accessibility of infrastructure

Magtel has completed the works to improve the electrical installations, the lighting in galleries and the updating of access security at the Guadalmellato Dam, located in Adamuz in the province of Cordoba.

This project, financed by the Confederación Hidrográfica del Guadalquivir (CHG), has reno-vated part of the inside of the dam.

Firstly, stainless steel handrails have been installed in the areas open to the passage of per-sonnel. Specifically, they are located on the sides of the inner corridors, facilitating accessibility between galleries and improving safety conditions inside the dam. New vertical staircases with trap doors have also been installed between each floor.

Secondly, the lighting system has been replaced. LED technology has also been incorporated. This type of lighting generates an increase in energy efficiency, avoiding a high percentage of heat loss and practically eliminating CO2 emissions.

These improvements have led to greater safety, enabling a rapid and urgent exit in the event of an emergency.
