At SOFAMEL, we have signed a strategic collaboration agreement with the Federation of Installation Guilds of Catalonia (FEGICAT) to promote a training programme aimed at raising the technical level of electrical installation professionals and strengthening safety in operations.
This partnership comes at a key moment for the sector, marked by increasing regulatory complexity and the need to ensure safer and more efficient installations.
A unique training programme
The project includes between 14 and 16 in-person sessions across Catalonia, focused on the Specific Specifications of E-Distribución. These sessions will address the high number of queries and issues arising from regulatory interpretation and the requirements of distribution companies.
The sessions will cover criteria for regulatory application, the resolution of real-life cases and the correct execution of installations, always with a practical approach tailored to the day-to-day needs of installation companies.
Electrical safety as a central pillar
As specialists in electrical safety, we will provide technical content on safe connections, the proper use of PPE and insulated tools, reinforcing our commitment to protecting installation professionals and consolidating our position as a benchmark in safety solutions.
In this regard, Joan Margets, CEO of SOFAMEL, highlights that “electrical safety is not only a regulatory requirement, it is a responsibility towards people. At SOFAMEL, we work so that every installer can carry out their work with greater knowledge, better judgement and, above all, enhanced protection.”
We will also take part in FEGICAT’s Practical Application Guides (GAPs), reference documents that reach more than 30,000 professionals and facilitate the correct interpretation of regulations.
A joint commitment to the professionalisation of the sector
With this partnership, FEGICAT strengthens its commitment to the training of the more than 5,200 installation companies it represents, while at SOFAMEL we consolidate our role as a strategic partner in a long-term project aimed at the continuous improvement of the electrical sector.
In this context, Víctor Margets, Deputy Managing Director at SOFAMEL, states that “collaborations such as this with FEGICAT allow us to provide real value to the sector by sharing knowledge and helping to raise the technical and safety standards of installation professionals.”
The first sessions will be announced shortly through the regional guilds.
