Genesis Cable 45145004 14 Awg 4 Conductor Fplp Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 45145004 is a solid-conductor, unshielded fire alarm cable rated FPLP (Fire Power Limited Plenum), designed for use in fire detection and notification wiring systems. Built with a 14 AWG solid conductor configuration and a 4-conductor layout, this cable is engineered for plenum-rated installations where low-smoke and flame spread characteristics are required by code. The red jacket provides the standard color identification used in fire alarm system wiring, making circuit identification straightforward during installation and future service. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is suited for commercial and residential fire alarm system installations where the cable must run through air-handling plenum spaces, such as above drop ceilings or inside HVAC return-air plenums. The FPLP rating satisfies the National Electrical Code requirements for plenum environments where standard FPL or FPLR cable is not permitted. It ships on a reel, making it practical for longer pulls and reducing kinking during installation in conduit or open plenum runs.

Key Features

• 14 AWG solid conductor construction for reliable continuity in fire alarm circuits
• 4-conductor configuration supports multi-zone or Class A wiring layouts
• FPLP plenum rating meets NEC Article 760 requirements for air-handling spaces
• Unshielded design is appropriate for standard fire alarm signaling applications
• Red jacket provides code-standard color identification for fire alarm wiring
• Reel packaging supports clean, efficient pulls on larger jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fire alarm cable for FPLP-rated wiring applications in commercial and residential fire detection and notification systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or fire alarm technician in accordance with NEC Article 760 and applicable local fire codes. De-energize and lock out the fire alarm control panel before making any connections to existing circuits. FPLP cable must be installed in plenum air-handling spaces only where this rating is required; do not substitute lower-rated cable in plenum environments. Maintain minimum bend radius during pulls to preserve conductor integrity and jacket condition.
