UNSPSC 39121615: Air circuit breakers

UNSPSC 39121615 Air circuit breakers is a Commodity code that encompasses the replacement, repair, installation, testing, and preventive maintenance of air circuit breakers and related electrical switching equipment in utility, facility, and infrastructure applications. State and local governments procure these devices across water and wastewater treatment, electrical distribution, correctional facilities, airports, and municipal infrastructure upgrades—sometimes as standalone components, sometimes as part of larger electrical or control-panel fabrication projects. The issuing bodies are diverse: state departments (Illinois Department of Corrections, Oregon Military Department, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department), county governments (Hillsborough County, Fairfax County, Collin County, Franklin County, Broward County, Brevard County, Portage County), cities (Jackson, Austin, Charlotte, Ocala, Phoenix, Lavonia), school districts (Northside Independent School District, Pinellas County), and special-purpose authorities (Kissimmee Utility Authority, Florida Keys Electric Cooperative). Universities and transit agencies also appear in the mix. The work spans emergency replacement and installation (Illinois Department of Corrections emergency 1600 AMP breaker swap at Dixon Correctional Center; Brevard County lift-station panel replacement), standing term contracts for testing and preventive maintenance (Fairfax County switchgear testing on a five-year contract; Collin County medium/high voltage services and preventive maintenance), open-end procurement for control-panel fabrication and refurbishment (Broward County FEMA-compliant water and wastewater control panels), and routine inventory and supplies sourcing for electrical components (Pinellas County, Northside ISD, Hillsborough County, Phoenix).

Recent activity concentrates in Florida (Broward, Brevard, Kissimmee, Pinellas, Ocala, FKEC), Texas (Collin County, Austin, TPWD), and the upper Midwest and Mid-Atlantic (Illinois, Fairfax County Virginia, Portage County Wisconsin, Franklin County Georgia, Oregon). Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Corrections' small-purchase-with-emergency-conditions solicitation for a Westinghouse Type DB50 1600 AMP breaker replacement at Dixon Correctional Center (RFQ, due July 16, 2026, maximum contract value $26,520); Fairfax County Department of Procurement's Invitation for Bid for switchgear testing and preventive maintenance across eight wastewater facilities on a five-year term (IFB 2000004382, due June 9, 2026); Broward County's open-end procurement for fabrication and refurbishment of FEMA-compliant water and wastewater control panels (two solicitations: PNC2132146B2, due June 26, 2026; PNC2132148B3, due June 22, 2026; estimated annual pass-through allowance $38,000 to $80,000); and Pinellas County School District's electrical supplies solicitation covering 27 categories of components including distribution equipment and circuit breakers (IFB 26-AM-008, due March 27, 2026, approximately $950,000 annually). The code shows sustained volume across maintenance, emergency repair, and commodity sourcing, with prevailing-wage requirements common in state and county work, and federal compliance (Davis-Bacon, FEMA, FTA) triggered by funding source.
