NIGP 80028: Caps, Spikes, Spurs, and Shields

NIGP 80028 Caps, Spikes, Spurs, and Shields is an Item code that covers protective hardware and attachment components for utility infrastructure, primarily spike and shield assemblies used in electrical utility work, telecommunications infrastructure protection, and related specialized applications. State and local governments procure these items through utilities commissions, public works departments, and special-purpose water and power districts that maintain distribution and transmission infrastructure. The code includes protective caps and covers for utility poles and equipment, anti-climbing devices (spurs and spikes), and shielding components that protect workers and infrastructure from contact hazards and environmental damage. Issuing bodies are typically municipal utilities, regional power authorities, and county public works operations managing pole yards, substations, and right-of-way maintenance.

No recent state or local contract opportunities are present in the source for this code.
