FAQ

What work fits NAICS 238210?
  • Installation of building electrical distribution including feeders, branch circuits, panels, and grounding systems during new construction or renovation.
  • Placement and wiring of interior and exterior lighting systems with controls and dimming integrated into construction phasing.
  • Installation and testing of backup power connections, transfer switches, and temporary power services for construction sites and emergency operations.
  • Low-voltage raceway and power wiring to support fire alarm, security, or communications equipment where electrical trade supplies power and termination services.
When is NAICS 238210 a weak fit?
  • Design and engineering services: deliverables limited to electrical designs, load calculations, or drawings without physical installation, wiring, or trade labor.
  • Telecommunications structured cabling contracts: scope centered on data cabling, fiber termination, and network certification rather than power distribution and electrical code work.
  • Electrical equipment manufacturing and assembly: production of switchgear, panels, or transformers in a factory environment without on-site installation, wiring, and branch-circuit hookup responsibilities.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 238210?
  • Scope includes on-site trade labor such as conduit pulling, circuit energization, permit sign-offs, and coordination with building inspectors.
  • Bid items reference electrical schedules, conduit types, wire gauges, breaker sizes, and acceptance testing per electrical code.
  • Solicitation requires electrician licenses, journeyman staffing levels, site safety plans, and temporary power procedures.
