Genesis Cable 45131001 14/2 Solid Fplp Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 45131001 is a 14 AWG 2-conductor solid unshielded fire alarm cable rated FPLP (Fire Power Limited Plenum) and supplied on a 1000-foot roll in white jacket. FPLP-rated cable meets plenum-space installation requirements, where flame spread and smoke generation must comply with stricter building code standards than standard FPL cable. This product is designed for use in fire alarm and life-safety signaling circuits in commercial and residential structures. Licensed electricians and low-voltage fire alarm technicians are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is suited for plenum-rated fire alarm system wiring where the cable runs through air-handling spaces such as dropped ceilings used as return-air plenums. Its solid 14 AWG conductors are appropriate for longer runs in initiating device circuits (IDC) and notification appliance circuits (NAC) where conductor resistance must be kept low. The white jacket aids circuit identification in multi-cable installations.

Key Features

• FPLP plenum rating meets NEC Article 760 requirements for plenum-space fire alarm wiring
• 14 AWG solid conductors support longer circuit runs with lower resistance
• 2-conductor configuration for standard initiating or notification circuit wiring
• Unshielded construction for typical fire alarm signal circuits that do not require shielding
• White jacket for visual circuit identification and standard fire alarm installation conventions
• 1000-foot roll quantity suitable for commercial job-site use

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated fire alarm signal cable for use in unshielded 2-conductor fire alarm circuit applications in compliance with NEC Article 760 FPLP installation requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician or certified fire alarm technician in accordance with NEC Article 760 and applicable local fire codes. Plenum-rated cable is required when routing through air-handling spaces as defined by the authority having jurisdiction. De-energize all connected fire alarm control panel circuits before making terminations. Do not substitute non-plenum-rated cable in plenum-space runs.
