Genesis Cable 4511104G 16/2 Fplp Solid Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 4511104G is a 16 AWG, 2-conductor solid unshielded fire alarm cable rated FPLP (Fire Power Limited Plenum), supplied on a 1000-foot reel in red jacket. FPLP-rated cable meets the requirements for installation in plenum air-handling spaces where standard FPL or FPLR cable is not permitted. This cable is used in low-voltage fire alarm signaling circuits and is designed for licensed fire alarm technicians and electricians working on life-safety systems in commercial and residential applications.

This cable is suited for installation in plenum-rated spaces such as above-ceiling air returns and raised-floor environments where building codes require plenum-rated wire. The solid 16 AWG conductors support supervised initiating device circuits and notification appliance circuits in conventional and addressable fire alarm systems. The red jacket provides quick visual identification during rough-in and inspection, which is standard practice on life-safety wiring runs.

Key Features

• FPLP plenum rating permits installation in air-handling spaces per NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760
• 16 AWG solid conductors for fire alarm signaling and initiating circuits
• 2-conductor configuration covers standard two-wire circuit wiring
• Red jacket meets conventional color-coding practice for fire alarm wiring
• 1000-foot reel quantity suitable for commercial rough-in projects
• Unshielded construction appropriate for standard fire alarm circuit runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum fire alarm cable for use in low-voltage fire alarm signaling systems requiring FPLP-rated 16 AWG 2-conductor solid wire per NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760 requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and applicable local codes. Verify that the plenum FPLP rating is required for the specific air-handling space before installation, as substituting non-plenum cable in plenum spaces is a code violation. De-energize all circuits before terminating conductors. Route and support cable per code-required spacing and avoid sharp bends that can damage the solid conductor.
