Genesis Cable 43085504 18/6 Solid Fplr Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 43085504 is an 18 AWG, 6-conductor solid-conductor fire alarm cable rated FPLR (Riser) for use in commercial and residential fire detection and notification systems. FPLR-rated cable is listed for use in riser applications where the cable must pass between floors through vertical runs in a building. The solid conductor construction provides reliable, low-resistance signal transmission suited for initiating device circuits, notification appliance circuits, and control wiring in addressable and conventional fire alarm panels. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is designed for use in fire alarm systems requiring riser-rated wiring per NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760. It is well suited for vertical riser runs, conduit installations, and open-air plenum-adjacent installations where FPLR listing meets the authority having jurisdiction. The red jacket is a standard industry color coding for fire alarm wiring, making circuit identification straightforward during installation and future service. This product is sold by the box.

Key Features

• 18 AWG solid conductor construction for stable, low-resistance fire alarm signal circuits
• 6 conductors allow wiring of multi-zone or multi-function circuits in a single cable run
• FPLR riser rating listed for vertical floor-to-floor runs per NEC Article 760
• Red PVC jacket meets standard fire alarm color-coding convention for easy circuit identification
• Unshielded design is appropriate for most standard fire alarm initiating and notification circuits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation cable for residential and commercial fire alarm systems requiring FPLR-rated, unshielded, solid-conductor 18 AWG 6-conductor wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or low-voltage electrician in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and all applicable local codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and notify the monitoring station before beginning any wiring work. Maintain minimum bend radius and avoid sharp edges or staples that could damage the jacket or conductors. All riser penetrations must be properly fire-stopped per local building and fire codes.
