UNSPSC 39122244: Cutout switch

A switch with a single electrode to protect and operate a transformer. If the internal fuse is shut off, the cover is automatically open by gravity.

UNSPSC 39122244 Cutout switch, a Commodity code, covers electrical switching and control components that state and local governments procure for infrastructure upgrades, facility maintenance, and operational equipment replacement. Recent activity shows a mix of network-infrastructure switches, industrial electrical components, and specialized control devices—including campus-wide switch installations funded through federal E-Rate programs, transit authority power and control equipment procurement, and water utility float switches for pump operation. The code captures both commodities (discrete components like mercury float switches, fuses, and contact kits) and labor-inclusive services (network switch installation and testing), reflecting how state and local agencies bundle equipment with on-site technical work.

State departments, county utilities, independent school districts, and transit authorities drive the bulk of activity. Hillsborough County (Florida) appears as a repeat buyer, soliciting mercury float switches, Schneider electrical components, and Square D contact kits across its water and facilities operations. Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) has posted multiple component procurements, including power converters, traction power fuses, and obstruction light assemblies. School systems in Georgia and Texas, city transit agencies in Charlotte and Dallas, and state criminal justice departments round out the issuer base. Geographic spread spans Texas (Dallas-Fort Worth transit, school districts, state corrections), Florida (county water and facilities), Georgia (E-Rate-funded school infrastructure), and scattered utilities across the Southeast and beyond. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Atlanta Department of Aviation's IFB for network switch replacement and installation services (due August 3, 2026), Northside Independent School District's IFB for broad electrical equipment, parts, and repair services with incumbent replacement terms (due July 1, 2026), and Hillsborough County's ITB for mercury float switches for wells and lift stations (due March 2, 2026, at $60,000.00 estimated value). The code shows steady procurement velocity with short turnaround windows, firm pricing requirements, and emphasis on delivery reliability and technical compliance.
