Conn-air w223c-2144fcbjc 22 Awg 3C Plenum Shielded Cable

Product Description

The CONN-AIR w223c-2144fcbjc is a plenum-rated, shielded 22 AWG 3-conductor control cable with a blue jacket, supplied in a 1000-foot box. It is designed for low-voltage signal and control wiring in commercial and residential building systems where the cable pathway runs through air-handling spaces. The plenum rating means the jacket compound meets the smoke and flame requirements for installation in HVAC plenum ceilings and raised-floor return-air plenums without conduit. The foil shield controls electromagnetic interference, preserving signal integrity across long cable runs. HVAC controls technicians, low-voltage electricians, and security integrators are the primary installers.

This cable is suited for sound distribution, security systems, temperature control wiring, and other special low-voltage control applications. The 22 AWG conductor size is standard for thermostat wiring, zone control buses, and sensor runs in commercial HVAC systems. The 3-conductor configuration covers common multi-wire control circuits found in building automation, access control, and audio distribution. The blue jacket aids in circuit identification when multiple cable types are run in the same plenum space.

Key Features

• Plenum-rated jacket meets smoke and flame requirements for air-handling space installation without conduit
• Foil shielding reduces EMI and crosstalk on long signal runs
• 22 AWG conductor size standard for thermostat, sensor, and low-voltage control circuits
• 3-conductor construction covers common multi-wire control and signal wiring needs
• Blue jacket supports color-coded circuit identification in multi-cable installations
• 1000-foot box pull quantity suitable for commercial project wire pulls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use control cable for low-voltage sound, security, temperature control, and special-application wiring in plenum-rated building environments.

Installation Notes

Installation must comply with NEC Article 800 and applicable low-voltage wiring codes governing plenum cable use. De-energize all control circuits before making terminations. Avoid sharp bends or kinking the cable during pull, as this can damage the foil shield and degrade signal performance. A licensed low-voltage electrician or HVAC controls technician should perform installation in commercial plenum spaces.
