Genesis Cable 46081004 14/2 Solid Fplp Fire Alarm Cable Red

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 46081004 is a 14 AWG 2-conductor solid FPLP-rated fire alarm cable supplied on a 1000-foot reel in red jacket. FPLP designates a plenum-rated fire protection cable, meaning it meets the smoke and flame propagation requirements for installation in air-handling spaces as defined by NFPA 72 and NEC Article 760. The solid conductor construction and shielded configuration make this cable well suited for initiating device circuits, notification appliance circuits, and other supervised fire alarm wiring runs where plenum routing and signal integrity are required.

This cable is used in commercial and institutional fire alarm system installations wherever wiring must pass through ceiling plenums, return air spaces, or other environmental air-handling areas. Electrical contractors and fire alarm system technicians install this product as part of new construction or retrofit fire protection projects. The red jacket color aids in field identification as fire alarm wiring, which is a common inspection and code compliance requirement on commercial job sites.

Key Features

• FPLP plenum rating meets NEC Article 760 and NFPA 72 requirements for air-handling space installations
• 14 AWG solid conductors provide low resistance over long supervised circuit runs
• 2-conductor shielded configuration supports signal integrity on initiating and notification circuits
• 1000-foot reel quantity reduces splicing needs on large commercial runs
• Red jacket color provides visual identification as fire alarm cable for inspection compliance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum fire alarm cable suitable for use with conventional and addressable fire alarm control panels requiring 14 AWG 2-conductor FPLP wiring in plenum or open-ceiling commercial environments.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician or certified fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and applicable local codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and notify the monitoring station before beginning any wiring work. Plenum-rated cable must be used wherever the raceway or cable path passes through air-handling spaces — do not substitute non-plenum cable in these locations. Support and secure the cable at intervals required by the authority having jurisdiction.
