Genesis Cable 43141004 14/4 Solid Fplr Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 43141004 is a 14 AWG, 4-conductor solid unshielded fire alarm cable rated FPLR (Riser) and packaged as a 1000-foot roll in red jacket. FPLR-rated cable is listed for use in riser applications, meaning it is approved to run vertically between floors inside a building without requiring metal conduit in most jurisdictions. The solid conductor construction supports reliable signaling across fire alarm initiating and notification circuits. This cable is specified by fire alarm installers and low-voltage electricians on commercial and residential fire protection projects.

This cable is suited for use in fire alarm systems requiring riser-rated wiring, including conventional and addressable panel installations. It is commonly pulled through conduit or open riser shafts to connect control panels, initiating devices such as smoke detectors and pull stations, and notification appliances such as horns and strobes. The red jacket allows quick visual identification in the field, which is standard practice for fire alarm wiring.

Key Features

• FPLR riser rating permits vertical installation in riser shafts and elevator hoistways per applicable fire code
• 14 AWG solid conductors support longer runs with lower voltage drop on supervised circuits
• 4-conductor configuration accommodates two-wire and four-wire device wiring within a single cable
• Unshielded construction keeps installation straightforward where EMI shielding is not required
• Red jacket provides immediate visual identification as fire alarm wiring
• 1000-foot roll length reduces mid-run splices on large installations

Compatibility

Designed as an FPLR-rated riser cable for use with conventional and addressable fire alarm control panels requiring unshielded 14 AWG 4-conductor solid wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm or low-voltage electrician in accordance with NFPA 72 and local authority having jurisdiction requirements. De-energize the fire alarm panel and follow lockout procedures before making any wiring connections. FPLR cable may be run in riser shafts without conduit where permitted by the AHJ, but always verify local code requirements before rough-in. Do not exceed the panel manufacturer's listed conductor specifications for circuit resistance and capacitance.
