UNSPSC 26121639: Combined or customized multi cables

Multi-cables are composed of various quantities of coaxial, twinaxial, pairs and singles cabled together per customer's specification, shielded and jacketed with various materials and colors.

UNSPSC 26121639 Combined or customized multi cables (Commodity) covers the procurement of assembled cable systems and specialty wire assemblies that state and local governments integrate into electrical distribution, telecommunications, and utility infrastructure. Recent activity under this code shows state and local buyers soliciting combined cable packages, bundled conductor systems, and site-specific assemblies for utility distribution, water treatment facilities, and transportation infrastructure rather than off-the-shelf individual cable spools. Lubbock Power & Light (Texas municipal utility) requested quotations in July 2026 for 2,000 feet of 350 KCM copper cable rated 25 KV with 260 mils EPR insulation and concentric neutral delivered on non-returnable reels, with manufacturer approval limited to ALCAN, ALCOA, General Cable, Kaiser, Kerite, Southwire, Alcatel (Nexans), CME Wire and Cable, Nehring, Okonite, Prysmian, Hendrix, and Priority Wire; Orlando Utilities Commission and Kissimmee Utility Authority jointly procured wire and cable covering four product groups—600 Volt Secondary Cable, Primary Cable XLP, Primary Cable EPR, and specialty items—through RFP with approximately 200 line items specified by conductor size, insulation type, and voltage rating; and the City of Albany, Georgia solicited sealed bids in March 2026 for conduit and wire installation labor to restore street lighting systems, with the city furnishing all power conduit and wire materials. Issuing bodies span municipal utilities, county water authorities, city public works departments, and independent school districts, with repeat buyers including Orange County, Florida (which has solicited on multiple electrical and infrastructure projects) and municipal utilities in Texas. Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and Georgia, with activity also appearing in Oregon, California, and Mississippi. Representative solicitations include Lubbock Power & Light Quote Request 26-7012-ELD (July 15, 2026 response date) for electrical equipment including 350 KCM copper cable; the City of Albany Procurement 26-053 Conduit & Wire Installation (June 4, 2026 IFB response deadline) for street lighting system restoration; and the Orlando Utilities Commission and Kissimmee Utility Authority RFP PR9071 (March 27, 2026 proposal submission via Vendorlink) for wire and cable products across multiple voltage ratings and applications spanning a three-year initial term with two optional one-year renewals.
