UNSPSC 39121014: Capacitor banks

UNSPSC 39121014 Capacitor banks, a Commodity code, covers capacitors and related electrical components that state and local governments procure for facility operations, transit system maintenance, and equipment repair and replacement. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers treating this code as part of broader electrical equipment purchasing — capacitors appear alongside ballasts, lighting components, and general electrical supplies rather than as standalone high-voltage power systems. The issuing bodies are school districts, county parks and recreation departments, and municipal transit authorities, purchasing capacitors in modest quantities (200 units annually in one recent case) as consumable or replacement items for routine maintenance.

Gwinnett County, Georgia posted a competitive quote request on June 2, 2026 (due June 12, 2026) for approximately 200 units annually of capacitors (Aerovox Z74S5232NN or approved equivalent) under an annual contract with four one-year renewal options, solicited by the Parks and Recreation Department through ITB/competitive quote. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas issued IFB2026098 on June 8, 2026 (due July 1, 2026) for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services, which subsumes capacitor procurement within a broader electrical category replacing an expiring contract. A March 2026 RFP from the City of Charlotte for transit system camera and access control maintenance, while not explicitly named under this code, included electrical support components. The geographic activity documented here centers on the Southeast (Georgia) and Texas, with isolated instances elsewhere. No statewide or multi-state cooperative vehicles or standout repeat buyers appear in the recent record under this code.
