UNSPSC 39122318: Frequency relay

A relay that becomes operational when the frequency reaches prescribed value.

UNSPSC 39122318 Frequency relay is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to tag motor control center (MCC) equipment, control panels, and related electrical enclosures for water and wastewater infrastructure. Recent solicitations show the code applied broadly to pump station control cabinets, master lift station motor control centers, soft-start replacement parts, and control system upgrades across municipal water districts, county utilities, and special-purpose water authorities. The issuing bodies span county boards of commissioners (Hillsborough County, Bay County, Riverside County, West Basin Municipal Water District in California), city departments (Tampa Wastewater, Orlando, Santa Fe, Bartow), and independent school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas). Work under the code ranges from replacement and renovation of existing control infrastructure to fabrication and installation of new cabinets meeting UL 508A and NEC standards, with contracts frequently bundling panel construction, programming, testing, commissioning, and operator training.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida—Hillsborough County's ITB for pump station control panels ($3.66 million estimated over two years, bids due September 29, 2026) and Bay County's Master Lift Station Motor Control Center project anchor the recent pipeline—with secondary activity in California (West Basin's TRWRP 93 MCC replacement, bids due April 23, 2026), New Mexico (Santa Fe's PLC and SCADA replacement RFP, proposals due January 9, 2026), and Texas (Northside Independent School District's electrical equipment IFB, bids due July 1, 2026). The Tampa Wastewater Department's single-source procurement for Solcon Soft-Start products (Intent to Single Source due October 2, 2026) and the City of Orlando's motor oil and lubricants IFB (bids due September 25, 2026) represent recent activity, though the Orlando solicitation addresses fluid management rather than electrical control equipment and shows minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. Hillsborough County's control panel ITB drew ten bids ranging from approximately $2.5 million to $5.1 million, with unit prices for individual panels spanning $21,000 to $112,000 depending on electrical configuration and horsepower rating.
