PSC 2920
Overview
The Product Service Code (PSC) system is the U.S. government’s standard taxonomy for classifying what agencies buy, enabling consistent reporting in FPDS and related acquisition systems. The PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative reference for definitions, inclusions, and exclusions that govern how products and services are coded. 1
PSC 2920 designates Engine Electrical System Components, Nonaircraft. Per the PSC Manual, this class includes generators, magnetos, spark plugs, ignition coils and distributors, engine voltage regulators, ignition harness assemblies, and starting motors for engines not designed for aircraft use. It excludes vehicular lighting fixtures and aircraft engine electrical components, which are classified under other PSCs. This class resides in Federal Supply Group 29 (Engine Accessories) and is used to distinguish nonaircraft engine electrical components from similar items intended for aircraft or other platforms. 1

Boundary notes and exclusions
- Aircraft-specific engine electrical items are classified under 2925; only nonaircraft engine items belong in 2920. 1
- Vehicular lighting fixtures are not part of 2920; lighting is classified under 6220. 1
- When an item set spans multiple systems, assignment should follow the PSC Manual’s direction to code the predominant item purchased and use exclusions to guide the final PSC. 1
DLA supply chain assignment (DoD)
Within DoD sourcing, Federal Supply Class assignments list 2920 as managed by the Defense Supply Center Columbus (DLA Land and Maritime) for procurement support and materiel management. 2
Frequently asked questions
-
What kinds of items are typical under PSC 2920?
The class comprises nonaircraft engine electrical components such as generators, magnetos, ignition coils and distributors, spark plugs, voltage regulators, ignition harnesses, and electric starters. These items support ignition and starting functions for nonaircraft engines across vehicle, marine, and stationary uses. 1 -
How is PSC 2920 different from PSC 2925?
2920 covers engine electrical components for nonaircraft engines. Items designed for aircraft or guided missile prime movers belong to 2925, which includes similar component types but explicitly for aircraft applications. 1

Are vehicle lighting systems included in PSC 2920?
No. Vehicular lighting fixtures are excluded from 2920 and classified in 6220. The 2920 scope focuses on engine electrical systems (ignition, generation, regulation, and starting), not lighting. 1 -
Who is the DoD logistics manager for PSC 2920 items?
DLA Land and Maritime (formerly DSCC) is identified as the managing center for FSC/PSC 2920 in DLA assignment tables within the DFARS PGI. This covers supply support and related responsibilities. 2 -
Is there an official NAICS crosswalk for PSC 2920?
Not specified by official sources 3.
