Genesis Cable 21035803 22AWG 4-conductor Riser Cable 500ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21035803 is a 22 AWG, 4-conductor solid unshielded riser-rated cable designed for low-voltage signal and control wiring in commercial and residential buildings. Supplied on a 500-foot spool in a high-visibility orange jacket, this cable carries a riser (CMR) rating, making it suitable for vertical runs between floors where flame spread must be controlled. It is a standard choice for HVAC thermostat wiring, fire alarm auxiliary circuits, access control, and building automation system runs installed by electrical and low-voltage contractors.

This cable is used in riser applications where cable must pass through floor penetrations or vertical shafts. The solid conductor construction supports reliable, stable connections at terminal blocks and screw terminals over long runs. The 22 AWG gauge and 4-conductor count make it a common fit for 24-volt HVAC control circuits, basic intercom wiring, and similar low-voltage installations in light commercial and residential buildings.

Key Features

• 22 AWG solid conductors for stable terminal connections and consistent signal integrity
• 4-conductor configuration suits standard thermostat and control wiring layouts
• Riser (CMR) rating allows vertical floor-to-floor installation per NEC Article 800 and 725
• Unshielded construction keeps installation straightforward in low-interference environments
• Orange jacket provides visual identification in conduit bundles and junction boxes
• 500-foot spool quantity reduces splicing on longer building runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock riser cable for low-voltage control, thermostat, and signal wiring applications in residential and light commercial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage contractor in accordance with NEC Article 725 and local building codes. Verify that all penetrations through fire-rated assemblies are properly firestopped after cable routing. De-energize any connected control circuits before terminating conductors. Solid conductors are best suited for screw-terminal and punch-down connections rather than repeated flex applications.
