UNSPSC 41111944: Electrical admittance sensors

UNSPSC 41111944 Electrical admittance sensors (Commodity) encompasses the relay and sensor components state and local governments purchase for electrical protection, automation, and SCADA infrastructure in utility and infrastructure operations. Recent solicitations show this code tags protective relays, motor control centers, and control panel components — equipment that monitors electrical systems, triggers automated responses, and integrates with supervisory control networks across water utilities, transit authorities, counties, and school districts. Utility authorities are the primary buyers, procuring standardized relay platforms for system-wide protection standardization; counties and transit operators source electrical components and control panels for pump stations, lift stations, and facility operations. School districts occasionally solicit under this code for broader electronic equipment and parts contracts that span multiple electrical categories.

The code sees recent activity primarily in Florida (Kissimmee Utility Authority, Hillsborough County, Bay County, City of Tampa) and Texas (Tarrant County transit, Gwinnett County, Georgia). Representative recent opportunities include Kissimmee Utility Authority's sole-source quotation (RFQ, August 24, 2026 response deadline, now past) for SEL 451 and SEL 751 protection relays to replace aging fleet components — a straightforward standardization play where sole-source justification hinged on SCADA integration and relay settings compatibility; Hillsborough County's competitive sealed bid (ITB-26-00277, June 18, 2026) for authorized Schneider Electric components valued at $519,787.19 over two years, with 15-day delivery windows to four warehouse locations; and Hillsborough County's separate ITB (ITB-26-00393, September 29, 2026 bids received) for pump station control panels and enclosures, $3.66 million estimated over two years, with 10 competing bids and unit prices ranging from $21,000 to $112,000 depending on configuration. County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner's procurement (IFB0603029702SC, May 14, 2026, same-day deadline) for 144 line items of electrical connectors and components under a firm-fixed three-year agreement with optional two-year renewals illustrates the fragmented competitive purchasing typical of mid-sized operational procurement.
