UNSPSC 39121638: Fuse cutout

High voltage fuses designed to protect lines or line equipment in the event of a fault

UNSPSC 39121638 Fuse cutout (Commodity) represents electrical distribution equipment state and local governments buy as stock supplies, repair parts, and components for facility maintenance, fleet operations, and utility infrastructure. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show the work is actually broader: school districts, transit authorities, and county governments are procuring general electrical supplies, equipment, and related parts bundled into blanket contracts and standing vendor lists rather than fuse cutouts as a line item. Issuing bodies include school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas, Pinellas County Schools in Florida), cities (Madison, Charlotte), counties (Palm Beach County), state agencies (Railroad Commission of Texas), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington counties). The code shows activity across multiple issuing-body types soliciting electrical supplies on competitive or pre-qualified bases, though the Commodity code's nominal scope—fuse cutouts specifically—does not align cleanly with the broader electrical-supply bundles most recently posted under it.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and Washington. Representative solicitations include Pinellas County Schools' March 2026 IFB for Electrical Supplies (27 product categories, conduit, wire, lighting, fuses, and distribution equipment; electronic bids due March 27, 2026; estimated annual value $950,000); Northside Independent School District's June 2026 IFB for Electrical Equipment, Parts, Supplies, Rentals, Repairs & Services (sealed bids due July 1, 2026, replacing an expiring contract); and Palm Beach County's January 2026 rolling pre-qualification for electrical supplies and equipment from over 110 manufacturers (applications due June 7, 2026; anticipated sixty-month contract value four million dollars). The code shows little relevant recent activity specific to fuse cutouts as a distinct product line; opportunities bundle fuses with broader electrical distribution categories and treat them as one line item within comprehensive electrical-supplies solicitations rather than stand-alone procurements.
