UNSPSC 26121548: Rectangular wire

A wire made of copper with rectangular shaped inner core.

UNSPSC 26121548 Rectangular wire, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product category that state and local governments procure primarily as components within broader electrical infrastructure, cabling, and facility maintenance projects rather than as standalone wire purchases. Recent state and local solicitations show rectangular wire tagged under this code appearing almost exclusively as subsumed line items within larger electrical equipment, parts, and supplies contracts—most notably in school districts, county facility management, and utility procurement. The Georgia Department of Education's RFP for data cabling installation at Commerce Elementary School (PE55777NONST2027000000004, due July 27, 2026), Northside Independent School District's IFB for electrical equipment, parts, and supplies (IFB2026098, due July 1, 2026), and San Bernardino County's ITB for parts and supplies across HVAC, electrical, and building maintenance categories (ITB 6391, due June 19, 2026) all bundle wire and related copper or conductor materials within larger facility support contracts. Issuing bodies include county facilities management offices, independent school districts, municipal utilities, and state departments of education and information resources, with school districts and county government appearing most frequently. The code sees limited standalone procurement activity; instead, rectangular wire demand flows through broader electrical supply agreements, on-call cabling services frameworks, and utility equipment contracts.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, California, Oregon, and Georgia based on recent solicitations. Hillsborough County (Florida) and the City of Charlotte (North Carolina) have issued overlapping five-year low voltage cabling services ITBs and RFPs (ITB-26-00261 and ITB-26-00215, both for cabling infrastructure; ITB2600215 due April 24, 2026) with estimated values of $8.7 million to $9.2 million over five years, indicating sustained demand across utility and municipal infrastructure. The State of Texas Department of Information Resources cooperative cabling procurement (COOP2026SOL-00008, due June 12, 2026) encompasses wire, cable, and related products across state and local purchasing consortiums. Orlando Utilities Commission and Kissimmee Utility Authority jointly solicited wire and cable through RFP PR9071 (posted April 13, 2026), specifying underground primary cables and secondary installations. No opportunities in the source direct procurement solely to rectangular wire; pursuit of this code requires bundling within broader electrical supply, cabling services, or facility maintenance agreements where wire products constitute one line item among many.
