NIGP 28566: Monitors and Related Equipment, Power Line

NIGP 28566 Monitors and Related Equipment, Power Line is an Item code that encompasses procurement of monitoring and sensing equipment, structural components, and integrated systems used in electric utility infrastructure—particularly high-voltage substations, distribution networks, and transmission systems. State and local governments acquire under this code through their utility departments, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts that operate or maintain electric distribution networks. The sourced opportunities show demand for 115 kilovolt substation steel structures (deadend line terminals, bus supports, CCVT supports, breaker disconnect switch supports, and CT supports), electrical equipment parts and supplies for ongoing maintenance and repairs, LED lighting fixtures with roadway and parking lot distribution specifications for park facilities, and video monitoring and access control system maintenance across transit infrastructure.

The issuing-body mix includes state utility commissions and departments (Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services), county governments (Denton County, Milwaukee County), cities and transit authorities (City of Charlotte / Charlotte Area Transit System), school districts (Northside Independent School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple participating Washington and Minnesota jurisdictions). Recent solicitations span Florida, Texas, California, Wisconsin, and North Carolina.
