Genesis Cable 45111010 Fire Alarm Cable 16AWG 2C Solid Fplp 1000 Ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 45111010 is a 16 AWG 2-conductor solid fire alarm cable rated FPLP (Fire Power Limited Plenum), supplied on a 1000-foot spool in purple jacket. FPLP-rated cable is listed for installation in air-handling plenum spaces where low smoke and flame spread characteristics are required by code. The solid conductor construction maintains reliable continuity in fixed, point-to-point fire alarm wiring runs. Licensed fire alarm installers and low-voltage contractors use this cable in new construction and retrofit projects governed by NFPA 72 and the National Electrical Code.

This cable is suited for use in commercial and residential fire alarm and signaling systems where plenum-rated wiring is required. Typical applications include connecting initiating devices such as smoke detectors, pull stations, and heat detectors to fire alarm control panels in buildings with plenum ceiling return-air pathways. The purple jacket aids in visual identification and circuit tracing during inspection and service.

Key Features

• FPLP plenum rating meets NEC requirements for air-handling space installations
• 16 AWG solid conductors provide stable resistance for fire alarm signaling runs
• 2-conductor configuration for standard initiating device circuit (IDC) wiring
• Purple jacket for easy visual identification and code-compliant circuit labeling
• 1000-foot spool quantity suitable for commercial project runs
• Unshielded construction appropriate for typical fire alarm signal wiring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum fire alarm cable for use in NFPA 72-compliant fire alarm and signaling systems requiring FPLP-rated 16 AWG 2-conductor solid wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm or low-voltage contractor in accordance with NFPA 72, NFPA 90A, and the applicable edition of the NEC Article 760. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and follow the panel manufacturer lockout procedure before making any wiring connections. Do not install non-plenum-rated cable as a substitute in plenum spaces, as this is a code violation and a life-safety hazard. Verify minimum bend radius and fill requirements when routing through conduit or cable trays.
