Genesis Cable 55541004 14 Awg Shielded Fire Alarm Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 55541004 is a 14 AWG, 1-pair solid conductor shielded fire alarm cable supplied on a 1000-foot reel in red jacket. Designed for use in fire alarm and life safety signaling circuits, this cable meets the requirements for shielded, solid-conductor wiring in low-voltage fire detection systems. The solid conductor construction provides reliable conductivity and consistent electrical characteristics across long runs. The red jacket provides immediate visual identification as fire alarm wiring, which is standard practice on commercial and residential life safety installations. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is suited for use in fire alarm panel wiring, initiating device circuits, and notification appliance circuits where shielded solid conductor cable is specified. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit fire alarm projects in commercial, industrial, and residential applications. The shielded construction helps reduce electromagnetic interference in environments where EMI from adjacent electrical systems may affect signal integrity. The 1000-foot reel quantity is standard for larger installations and multi-zone system wiring.

Key Features

• 14 AWG solid conductor construction for stable electrical performance across extended runs
• Shielded design reduces electromagnetic interference on fire alarm signaling circuits
• Red jacket provides standard visual identification for fire alarm wiring
• 1-pair configuration suitable for initiating device and signaling circuit applications
• Supplied on a 1000-foot reel for efficient installation on larger projects
• Fire shielded solid category meets life safety wiring specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style shielded solid conductor fire alarm cable for use in low-voltage fire alarm and life safety signaling systems where 14 AWG shielded 1-pair solid cable is required by system design or local code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or low-voltage electrician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and isolate the circuit before making any wiring connections. Maintain minimum bend radius requirements during installation to avoid damaging the shield or conductor insulation. Do not run fire alarm cable in the same conduit as line-voltage wiring unless permitted by the authority having jurisdiction.
