Key figures

  • NAICS 423610 in Illinois: $266,983,052.18 across 16,796 awards.
  • Average obligation per award is about $15,895.63.
  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide Electrical wholesalers.
  • IL is place of performance, not a warehouse-only split.

What NAICS 423610 and Illinois share on one row

NAICS 423610 and place-of-performance state IL meet here. $266,983,052.18 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Illinois, not the nationwide Electrical Apparatus And Equipment, Wiring Supplies, And Related Equipment Merchant Wholesalers total, and not cash already paid. Chicago distributor folklore and statewide electrical-supply stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a warehouse list and not a SKU census.

16,796 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a very long award list beside a nine-figure obligation total. A very long row list can mix small catalog orders with larger instruments. The join does not rank Illinois against other states and does not name distributors inside the extract.

Open Illinois federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 423610 for the next hub, Illinois industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

16,796 electrical-wholesaler actions under an Illinois geography tag

Dividing $266,983,052.18 by 16,796 yields about $15,895.63 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical supply order. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-recipient census and not a SKU census. Distributor names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.

Chicago distributor folklore and statewide electrical-supply stories is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative's extra columns.

NAICS 423610 without an Illinois overlay is a different total

The NAICS 423610 page aggregates NAICS 423610 without requiring IL geography. The Illinois federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Illinois place of performance. Illinois industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 423610 filter and the IL filter, which is why it cites 16,796 awards and $266,983,052.18.

Place of performance in Illinois is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list IL while work occurs in Indiana or Wisconsin. 423610 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a warehouse mailroom is in Chicago. This packet does not split Chicago from Rockford or Springfield.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $266,983,052.18 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Illinois over-reads the field.

Award count 16,796 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Illinois federal spending, NAICS 423610, and Illinois industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 423610 total in Illinois does not mean wholesalers caused Illinois's electrical mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between distribution geography and supply awards is expected; it is not a finding about infrastructure quality or waste.

Keep $266,983,052.18 labeled as NAICS 423610 obligations with Illinois place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Illinois-423610 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 423610 (Electrical Apparatus And Equipment, Wiring Supplies, And Related Equipment Merchant Wholesalers), Illinois place of performance, $266,983,052.18 in obligations, and 16,796 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $266,983,052.18 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $15,895.63 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical supply order.

Illinois federal spending, NAICS 423610, Illinois industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $266,983,052.18 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Chicago-versus-Rockford folklore is not a metro split in this packet. A long award list is still a record count, including modifications. Do not treat 16,796 rows as 16,796 warehouses. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.
