Genesis Cable 43015501 22 Awg 4 Conductor Fplr Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 43015501 is a 22 AWG 4-conductor unshielded solid fire alarm cable rated FPLR (Riser) for use in commercial and residential fire detection and signaling systems. FPLR-rated cable is listed for vertical runs in riser applications between floors, meeting the flame-spread requirements of the National Electrical Code. The solid conductor construction provides consistent conductivity and reliable termination at control panels, initiating devices, and notification appliances. This cable ships in a 500-foot pull box in white jacket, making it a standard stocking item for fire alarm contractors and low-voltage installers.

This cable is suited for 2-wire and 4-wire fire alarm circuits including smoke detector loops, pull station wiring, horn and strobe circuits, and addressable device wiring. It is designed for dry, damp, or plenum-adjacent riser installations where an FPLR rating is specified by the engineer or authority having jurisdiction. The white jacket is common in commercial retrofit and new construction projects where visible surface wiring is permitted or required.

Key Features

• 22 AWG solid conductor construction for firm, consistent terminations at device terminals
• 4-conductor configuration supports 2-wire supervised circuits or 4-wire detector power and signal runs
• FPLR (Riser) flame rating meets NEC Article 760 requirements for vertical riser installations
• Unshielded design appropriate for standard fire alarm signaling circuits not requiring EMI shielding
• White PVC jacket for easy identification and compatibility with common fire alarm installation aesthetics
• 500-foot box packaging with pull-from-center or end-feed for clean field pulls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation cable for FPLR-rated fire alarm signaling circuits in residential and commercial riser applications per NEC Article 760.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed low-voltage or fire alarm contractor in accordance with NEC Article 760 and local AHJ requirements. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and follow lockout procedures before making any wiring connections. FPLR cable is approved for riser runs but is not rated for plenum spaces — verify the correct cable rating with the project specification before installation. Maintain proper bend radius and avoid sharp staples or fasteners that could damage the jacket or deform solid conductors.
