Genesis Cable 45131004 14/2 Solid Fplp Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 45131004 is a 14 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 is listed for use in plenum air-handling spaces where low-smoke and flame-spread characteristics are required by code. The solid conductor construction supports reliable point-to-point wiring in fire alarm and life safety circuits. This cable is installed by licensed electricians and fire alarm system technicians working on new construction and retrofit fire detection systems.

This cable is suited for residential and commercial fire alarm installations where the raceway passes through plenum ceilings or air-handling return spaces. It is commonly pulled for initiating device circuits (IDC), notification appliance circuits (NAC), and signaling line circuits in conventional and addressable fire alarm systems. The red jacket provides instant visual identification of fire alarm wiring during inspection and service.

Key Features

• 14 AWG solid conductor construction for stable, low-resistance fire alarm circuits
• FPLP plenum rating meets flame-spread and smoke-density requirements for air-handling spaces
• Unshielded design suitable for standard fire alarm signal and power-limited circuits
• Red jacket provides code-compliant visual identification for fire alarm wiring
• 1000-foot reel minimizes splices on large pulls and reduces installation time

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock conductor for power-limited fire alarm circuits requiring FPLP-rated 14 AWG 2-conductor solid cable.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician or fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72, NFPA 70 (NEC Article 760), and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the fire alarm control panel before connecting or extending any circuit wiring. Do not use FPLP-rated cable as a substitute for FPLR or non-plenum cable types in applications where plenum rating is not required, as local inspectors verify cable type against installation location. Support and secure cable at intervals required by the authority having jurisdiction.
