Genesis Cable 45131008 14/2 Solid Fplp CL3P Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 45131008 is a 14 AWG, 2-conductor solid-conductor fire alarm and control cable rated FPLP (Fire Power Limited Plenum) and CL3P, supplied on a 1000-foot roll in black. FPLP and CL3P dual ratings make this cable suitable for plenum air-handling spaces where low-smoke, limited-combustibility performance is required by code. The solid conductor construction is standard for fire alarm initiating device circuits, notification appliance circuits, and low-voltage control wiring in commercial and light industrial installations. Electricians and low-voltage fire alarm technicians are the primary installers of this product.

This cable is used in fire alarm systems routed through plenum ceilings, raised-floor air plenums, and other air-handling environmental spaces in commercial buildings. Typical applications include wiring smoke detectors, pull stations, horn-strobe notification appliances, and control modules back to a fire alarm control panel. The CL3P rating also qualifies this cable for Class 3 remote-control and signal circuits in plenum spaces, making it a dual-use option in mixed low-voltage plenum installations.

Key Features

• FPLP rating meets NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760 requirements for plenum-rated fire alarm cable
• CL3P rating qualifies cable for Class 3 remote-control and signal circuits in plenum spaces per NEC Article 725
• 14 AWG solid conductors for fire alarm initiating and notification appliance circuits
• 2-conductor configuration for standard point-to-point fire alarm device wiring
• 1000-foot roll reduces splice points on large commercial runs
• Black jacket for identification and routing in commercial plenum environments

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated fire alarm cable suitable for use in NFPA 72-compliant fire alarm systems and NEC Article 760 installations where FPLP-rated cable is specified in plenum air-handling spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation must comply with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and all applicable local fire and building codes. This cable should be installed by a licensed electrician or certified fire alarm technician. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and follow lockout/tagout procedures before making any connections. Plenum-rated cable must be routed only in plenum spaces or locations where the authority having jurisdiction approves its use — do not substitute standard non-plenum cable in plenum-rated applications.
