UNSPSC 39122105: Electrical spacer

An insulator inserted between conductors to prevent direct contact between them.

UNSPSC 39122105 Electrical spacer, a Commodity code, names a narrow product category that state and local governments procure as components within broader utility and infrastructure projects—specifically insulators, support hardware, and related poleline materials used in electrical distribution and communication networks. Recent state and local solicitations under or adjacent to this code show procurement of poleline hardware (anchor rods, cable clamps, guy hooks), insulator components, fiberglass strain rods, pedestal bases, luminaire arms, and cable management systems, typically embedded in larger electrical equipment, span material, and communications infrastructure buys rather than solicited as standalone spacer products. Purchasing bodies include municipal utilities, counties, cities, school districts, and special-purpose districts (including water reclamation authorities and transit systems), with no single issuing body dominating recent activity.

Activity appears scattered across Texas (Lubbock Power & Light, City of Austin, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD, Northside ISD, Seminole County Public Works), Florida (Orange County, Orlando Utilities Commission, Florida Keys Electric Cooperative), Kentucky (Kentucky Transportation Cabinet), North Carolina (Charlotte Area Transit System), and Georgia (Gwinnett County). Representative recent procurements include Lubbock Power & Light's Quote Request 26-7012-ELD (due July 15, 2026) for anchor rods and copper cable; the City of Austin's Invitation for Quotation IFQ 1100 BAS1092 (due May 19, 2026) for fiberglass rod strain insulators; and Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's RFB 60526000005851 (due June 4, 2026) for pedestal and base components totaling approximately 910 units. The code reflects commodity-level buys within larger infrastructure projects—electrical utility upgrades, traffic signal systems, streetlight replacements, and water reclamation facility improvements—where electrical spacers and support hardware function as components rather than end products.
