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 covering the supply of pre-assembled electrical cords and related power-distribution connectors for state and local government maintenance, operations, and facility management. Recent state and local solicitations frame this code broadly as part of blanket purchase orders for maintenance, repair, and operating supplies spanning electrical distribution systems, facility infrastructure, and equipment—cords appear alongside conduit, wire, lighting controls, and mechanical systems rather than as a standalone procurement category. The issuing-body mix reflects municipal and county procurement offices (City of Milpitas, Lubbock Power & Light, Hillsborough County), school districts (Pinellas County School District, Northside Independent School District), and special-purpose authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority, Eastern Municipal Water District). Repeat buyers in the recent activity include Pinellas County School District, which has issued multiple electrical and facility-supply solicitations, and the City of Austin, which regularly issues narrowly targeted equipment quotations. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas (Lubbock, San Antonio, Austin) and Florida (Tampa, Orlando, Tarpon Springs, Gulfport), with additional activity in California (Riverside County) and Georgia (Atlanta, Bibb County).

Representative recent opportunities show electrical cord assembly embedded within broader supply contracts rather than procured standalone. The City of Milpitas issued IFB 26-229 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 23, 2026) for blanket purchase orders across five maintenance supply categories—electrical conduit and cords are listed as examples within General MRO Supplies and Facilities Maintenance Supplies—with a five-year term and multiple awards anticipated across categories. Northside Independent School District issued IFB 2025-100 replacement (posted June 8, 2026, due July 1, 2026) for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services in San Antonio, Texas, requiring all incumbent and prospective vendors to respond to retain business. Pinellas County School District issued ITB 26-AM-008 (posted March 30, 2026, due March 27, 2026) for 27 product categories of electrical supplies including conduit, wire, cable, and lighting components for districtwide delivery. The City of Austin has issued multiple narrowly scoped quotations for specific electrical components (loadbreak elbows, bolted connectors, deadbreak elbows) in the 2,000–3,000 unit range, signaling routine replacement purchasing rather than new-build. Cord assembly does not appear as a standalone line item in any recent solicitation; instead, the code likely captures vendor compliance during broader electrical-supply awards where cords are stocked as commodity items alongside larger systems.
