UNSPSC 26121652: Electrical cord assembly

A cable for electricity that is designed for the terminal process to connect the ends of both sides or one end to the other item.

UNSPSC 26121652 Electrical cord assembly is a Commodity code that encompasses prepared cables and cord assemblies for electrical distribution and signal transmission. State and local governments procure these under this code when buying traffic signal cables, ground clamps, connector bolts, and specialized wiring for installation and maintenance of electrical infrastructure. The issuing bodies span cities (Austin Transportation & Public Works, Philadelphia), counties (Harris County Precinct 3, DeKalb County, Galveston County, Orange County Transportation Authority), school districts (Pinellas County, Northside Independent School District, Gwinnett County Public Schools), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit, Trinity Metro), and consolidated government entities (Columbus Consolidated Government). Cities and school districts show repeated activity, with Austin appearing multiple times for ground clamps, traffic signal cables, and connector components, and Pinellas County School District soliciting repeatedly for theatrical and building electrical systems that incorporate cord and cable elements as subordinate line items within larger renovation contracts.

Recent opportunities show active procurement across Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with secondary activity in Wisconsin, California, Illinois, and Ohio. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Austin Transportation & Public Works Department's IFQ for various traffic signal cables (15,000 feet of 5-conductor and 7-conductor cables, composite coax, and shielded twisted pair, due October 23, 2026); Harris County Precinct 3's ITB for electrical parts and related items on an as-needed basis (due October 26, 2026, contract term beginning January 1, 2027); Pinellas County School District's ITB for electrical maintenance and repair services with an estimated contract value of approximately $400,000 covering auditorium and theater lighting, parking lot and field lighting, and EV charging station work (sealed bids due October 8, 2026, mandatory pre-bid conference September 24, 2026); and Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for on-call electrical installation and maintenance services across all City buildings (proposals due September 30, 2026, two-year initial term with three one-year renewal options). City of Austin also solicited for ground clamps (#2/0 to #250 MCM) under IFQ with a 250-unit scope and quotes due October 7, 2026. Activity reflects both blanket purchase orders and as-needed master service agreements structured to support facilities maintenance, emergency response, and capital projects.
