Genesis Cable 43071104 18/4 Solid Fplr Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 43071104 is an 18 AWG, 4-conductor solid-conductor fire alarm cable with an FPLR riser rating, supplied in a 1,000-foot pull box in red jacket. FPLR-rated cable is listed for use in riser applications, meaning it is approved to run vertically between floors in non-plenum spaces. The solid conductor construction and red jacket make it easy to identify in conduit or raceway, consistent with fire alarm system conventions. Licensed electricians and fire alarm system installers use this cable for initiating circuits, notification appliance circuits, and signaling line circuits in commercial and residential fire alarm installations.

This cable is used in low-voltage fire alarm and life safety wiring applications governed by NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760. It is appropriate for riser runs in multi-story residential and light commercial buildings where a plenum rating is not required. The solid conductor construction suits in-wall, in-conduit, and raceway routing where fixed, non-flexing runs are standard. The 1,000-foot box format is designed for easier pulling on larger installation jobs.

Key Features

• 18 AWG solid conductor construction for stable low-voltage fire alarm circuits
• 4-conductor configuration suitable for two-wire and four-wire initiating and notification circuits
• FPLR riser rating listed for vertical runs between floors in non-plenum riser spaces
• Red jacket for immediate visual identification as fire alarm wiring per industry convention
• 1,000-foot pull box format reduces handling time on larger commercial and residential jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a riser-rated fire alarm cable for use with conventional and addressable fire alarm control panels requiring 18 AWG 4-conductor unshielded solid wiring in FPLR-rated applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must comply with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and all applicable local fire and electrical codes. Fire alarm cable installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or certified fire alarm technicians. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and follow lockout procedures before making any connections. FPLR cable is rated for riser use only and must not be substituted for plenum-rated cable in air-handling spaces.
