UNSPSC 32121507: Film fixed capacitor

UNSPSC 32121507 Film fixed capacitor is a Commodity code that spans electrical components for utility infrastructure, industrial control systems, and facility maintenance — though recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct demand for standalone film capacitors. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code predominantly involve broader electrical equipment procurement, motor control centers, SCADA panels, and related components where capacitors function as subordinate parts within larger systems rather than standalone line items. Issuing bodies pursuing work under or near this code include utility authorities (Kissimmee Utility Authority in Florida), county governments (Hillsborough County and Bay County in Florida, Gwinnett County in Georgia), school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas), transit authorities (Trinity Metro in Texas), and municipalities (City of Tampa, City of Arlington, City of Fort Worth). Hillsborough County appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple competitive solicitations for electrical components and control panel systems over recent months.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and Texas, with secondary presence in Georgia and Washington state. Representative recent opportunities include Kissimmee Utility Authority's sole-source quotation (posted September 2026, due August 24, 2026) for SEL 451 and SEL 751 protection relays to replace aging components in its SCADA infrastructure; Hillsborough County's competitive sealed bid (ITB-26-00277, posted May 2026, due June 18, 2026, estimated value $519,787.19 over two years) for standardized Schneider Electric electrical components used in SCADA control panels; and Gwinnett County, Georgia's competitive quotation (posted June 2, 2026, due June 12, 2026) for approximately 200 units annually each of 1500W metal halide ballasts and capacitors (Aerovox Z74S5232NN or equivalent) for Parks and Recreation Department facilities. A cooperative purchasing opportunity through Sourcewell (RFP #061626, posted May 2026, due June 16, 2026) sought law enforcement equipment, though this carries minimal relevance to film capacitors. The code shows scattered demand primarily as component line items within larger electrical control and protection system procurements rather than as a focused category.
