Genesis Cable 31141103 18/2 Stranded Plenum Security Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 31141103 is an 18 AWG 2-conductor stranded, unshielded security cable with a plenum-rated jacket, packaged in a 1000-foot pull box. The CL2P rating makes this cable suitable for air-handling plenum spaces where low-smoke, low-flame-spread properties are required by code. The orange jacket aids in visual identification during rough-in and inspection. Licensed electricians and low-voltage security installers use this cable for alarm, access control, and general security wiring applications.

This cable is designed for residential and commercial security system installations where plenum-space routing is required. Typical applications include intrusion alarm circuits, door and window contact wiring, motion detector runs, and similar low-voltage signal circuits pulled through ceiling plenums, raised floors, or other air-handling return spaces. The stranded conductor construction improves flexibility during pull and termination compared to solid conductor alternatives.

Key Features

• CL2P plenum rating meets NEC Article 800 and NFPA 90A requirements for air-handling spaces
• 18 AWG stranded conductors offer flexibility for routing through tight spaces and conduit
• 2-conductor configuration suits standard security sensor and alarm circuit wiring
• Orange jacket provides quick visual identification on the job site and during inspection
• 1000-foot box format supports full-run residential and light commercial jobs from a single spool
• Unshielded construction keeps terminations straightforward for standard security panels and devices

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard supply cable for residential and commercial low-voltage security, alarm, and access control systems requiring plenum-rated 18 AWG 2-conductor wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with NEC Article 725 and local authority having jurisdiction requirements. De-energize all connected panels and devices before making terminations. CL2P-rated cable is required by code when routing through air-handling plenum spaces and must not be substituted with non-plenum-rated cable in those environments. Avoid sharp bends and kinking during pull to preserve conductor integrity and jacket appearance.
