CPV Code 311 – Electrical Machinery

What does CPV code 311 cover?

CPV code 311 (Electrical machinery) classifies the procurement of electrical machines, motors, generators, transformers and associated large-scale installations in public procurement. This ranges from electric motors for pump stations and wastewater treatment plants to emergency power generators for hospitals and data centres, through to transformers and substations for public energy infrastructure.

Electrical machinery forms the backbone of public infrastructure. Without powerful motors, generators and transformers, neither water supply nor public transport, neither hospitals nor data centres can function.

Application areas in the public sector

Electrical machinery is needed in virtually all areas of public infrastructure:

  • Waterworks and treatment plants: Pump drives, aeration motors, generators for biogas CHP
  • Hospitals: Emergency power generators (often legally mandated), UPS systems, lift motors
  • Transport infrastructure: Traction motors for trams, signalling transformers, tunnel ventilation
  • Energy supply: Medium and high-voltage transformers, substations, switchgear
  • Data centres: Redundant emergency power supply, cooling system drives
