UNSPSC 39121469: Electrical plug/receptacle adapter

A device that facilitates converting from one plug receptacle configuration to a different configuration. Examples would be an RV plug adapter, universal plug adapter, etc.

UNSPSC 39121469 Electrical plug/receptacle adapter, a Commodity code, sees limited direct solicitation activity at the state and local level, with the recent opportunities block showing no contracts explicitly tagged to this code. Of the seventeen recent state and local solicitations reviewed, only one—the City of Philadelphia's micro purchase B2626890 for Audio Video Equipment Part 2 (due April 22, 2026)—names electrical adapters (USB-C to HDMI adapters) as a line item among a broader equipment bundle. The code's nominal scope (plug and receptacle adapters) does not align clearly with the bulk of recent activity, which spans MRO supplies, janitorial equipment, theatrical lighting systems, network infrastructure, water treatment components, and transit vehicle hardware. State and local procurement offices tag adapters inconsistently across broader electrical, facilities maintenance, and technology procurements rather than as standalone commodity purchases.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunity set include cities (Philadelphia, Austin, Charlotte), counties (Hillsborough, Gwinnett, Riverside), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Bibb County, Pinellas County, Donna ISD), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit, Orange County Transportation Authority, Charlotte Area Transit System), municipal utilities (Lubbock Power & Light), and special districts (Eastern Municipal Water District). Geographically, recent state and local activity clusters in California, Florida, Texas, Georgia, and North Carolina. The code shows minimal pursuit opportunity in the near term; firms supplying electrical adapters to state and local buyers typically compete within broader electrical supplies or IT equipment procurements rather than as a distinct category. Interested vendors should monitor facilities maintenance, MRO, and IT equipment RFPs where adapters appear as secondary line items, and consider cooperative purchasing frameworks (such as those issued by Sourcewell or the New Jersey Cooperative Purchasing Alliance for electrical supplies) where adapter demand aggregates with other commodity categories.
