Genesis Cable 43121001 16/4 Solid Fplr Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 43121001 is a 16 AWG 4-conductor solid-conductor fire alarm cable rated FPLR (Riser) and supplied on a 1000-foot roll in white jacket. FPLR-rated cable is listed for use in riser applications where the cable must pass between floors inside a building, meeting flame-spread requirements defined under the National Electrical Code for fire protective signaling systems. The solid conductors make it well suited for consistent, low-resistance connections across long supervised circuit runs. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is used in commercial and residential fire alarm system installations, including initiating device circuits and signaling line circuits where a 4-conductor, riser-rated cable is required. Its 16 AWG solid construction supports the longer home-run and Class B circuit runs common in panel-based fire alarm systems. The white jacket allows for straightforward identification in conduit or open-plenum-adjacent riser shafts.

Key Features

• 16 AWG solid conductors for low-resistance, long-run fire alarm circuits
• 4-conductor configuration supports initiating device and notification appliance circuits
• FPLR riser rating meets NEC Article 760 requirements for between-floor riser installations
• White PVC jacket for easy visual identification in multi-cable pathways
• 1000-foot pull-from-center or reel packaging reduces install time on larger jobs
• Unshielded construction appropriate for standard fire alarm signaling circuits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation cable for fire protective signaling systems requiring FPLR-rated, 16 AWG 4-conductor solid cable per NEC Article 760.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or low-voltage electrician in accordance with NEC Article 760 and the local authority having jurisdiction. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and lock out all power sources before making any wiring connections. FPLR cable may be routed in riser applications but is not permitted as a substitute for plenum-rated (FPLP) cable in plenum air-handling spaces. Route and secure cable per the panel manufacturer wiring diagrams and applicable local codes.
