UNSPSC 26121665: Aluminum triplex service drop cable

Insulated aluminum conductor cable, used to supply power to user's service head.

UNSPSC 26121665 Aluminum triplex service drop cable is a Commodity code that captures transmission and distribution electrical conductor wire used in utility reconductor projects, broadband and telecommunications cabling infrastructure, and facility electrical distribution systems across state and local government buyers. The recent opportunities under this code show state and local governments procuring aluminum conductor composite core (ACCC) transmission wire, structured network cabling systems, and integrated installation services rather than isolated aluminum triplex drop cable alone. Issuing bodies are utility authorities, state departments managing correctional and educational facilities, school districts, and city water and electric utilities. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Education Service Center Region 4, Kissimmee Utility Authority, and Long Beach Public Utilities Department appear among recent solicitors. Work spans design, materials, installation, maintenance, testing, bonding, and 24/7 technical support for transmission line capacity expansion, broadband connectivity expansion across correctional facilities, structured copper and fiber cabling in educational buildings, and groundwater treatment plant electrical rehabilitation.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, California, Georgia, and Mississippi. The Kissimmee Utility Authority issued IFB 26-055-JG (closed October 27, 2026) for high-temperature ACCC transmission conductor wire—162,000 feet across three reconductor projects with firm-fixed FOB destination pricing and phased delivery through February 2028. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited RFP 696IT26O017 (due November 9, 2026) for broadband connectivity continuation and expansion cabling services and IP video surveillance systems across 80 correctional facilities statewide, with a mandatory 3% VetHUB subcontracting participation goal for awards of $100,000 or more and pre-bid facility tours October 19–21. Texas Education Service Center Region 4 issued sealed bids for cabling services and video surveillance installation across member school districts (due November 9, 2026). The Texas Department of Information Resources is marketing a statewide cooperative cabling services contract (COOP2026SOL-00008, closed September 24, 2026) with historical annual volumes of $11.1 to $12.0 million and mandatory accessibility documentation (VPAT, VADSIR, PDAA) as a pass/fail evaluation criterion. Hillsborough County issued ITB 26-00261 (closed May 29, 2026) for five-year low voltage cabling services at an estimated $9.2 million total value, requiring 24/7 support and BICSI RCDD credentials.
