UNSPSC 31151706: Non electrical copper cables

UNSPSC 31151706 Non electrical copper cables is a Commodity-tier code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers electrical conductors and conduit systems used in utility infrastructure, wastewater lift stations, and facility electrical upgrades. State and local governments are buying copper and aluminum wire, HDPE conduit, submersible pump electrical feeder systems, and conductor assemblies under this code. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and municipal utilities—Pinellas County School District, the City of Norwalk Public Schools, the City of Albany, and the City of Lubbock—along with cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional consortia. Recent work spans wastewater treatment upgrades, electrical service replacements, and facility conditioning systems.

Recent solicitations concentrate in Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Connecticut. Pinellas County School District issued ITB #26-CD-033 for lift station replacement at Dixie Hollins High School (bids due August 31, 2026, estimated value $485,000) requiring new three-phase feeder infrastructure with #6 AWG and #10 ground conductors compliant with NFPA 70-2020 National Electrical Code; the City of Norwalk Public Schools issued a sealed bid (due May 15, 2026) for electrical and air-conditioning upgrades at Wolfpit Elementary School with comprehensive rewiring and service enhancements; the City of Albany issued a sealed bid (due September 8, 2026) for installation of 1–2 inch HDPE primary power conduit via directional bore at minimum depth 3.5 feet; and the City of Lubbock solicited RFP 26-19769-YB for mechanical, electrical, and welding services (due August 12, 2026) including electrical installations and repairs for water utility facilities on a one-year term with four optional renewals. Sourcewell's cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) also appears tagged to this code but represents a broader equipment purchasing vehicle rather than conductor-specific work.
