Wirepath NST-224PL-SLD-1000-W 22 Awg 4C Shielded Fire Cable

Product Description

The WIREPATH NST-224PL-SLD-1000-W is a 22 AWG, 4-conductor shielded solid fire alarm cable supplied on a 1000-foot reel in white jacket. Designed for fire detection and notification wiring applications, this cable features solid conductors for low-resistance signal transmission and an overall shield for noise rejection in electrically busy environments. The white PVC jacket supports installation in visible or semi-exposed interior runs where jacket color aids in circuit identification. Fire alarm technicians and low-voltage installers are the primary trades working with this cable.

This cable is suited for residential and light commercial fire alarm system wiring, including initiating device circuits and notification appliance circuits. It is commonly pulled between control panels, pull stations, smoke detectors, and horn-strobe devices. The shielded construction makes it appropriate for installations where EMI interference from nearby power wiring or HVAC equipment is a concern. The 1000-foot continuous reel length supports larger installations and reduces splice points.

Key Features

• 22 AWG solid conductors for stable, low-resistance signal paths over longer runs
• 4-conductor configuration supports multi-zone or Class A fire alarm wiring layouts
• Overall shield provides protection against electromagnetic interference
• White PVC jacket aids in circuit identification and complements clean interior finishes
• 1000-foot reel minimizes splices on larger commercial or multi-room residential jobs
• Fire shielded construction meets typical requirements for fire protective signaling cable installations

Compatibility

Designed as a fire shielded solid conductor alarm cable suitable for use with conventional and addressable fire alarm control panels requiring 22 AWG 4-conductor shielded wiring on initiating or notification circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local fire codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and follow the panel manufacturer lockout procedure before terminating conductors. The shield drain wire must be properly terminated per the panel manufacturer instructions to achieve effective EMI rejection. Do not route this cable in the same conduit as line-voltage wiring unless separation requirements of the applicable electrical code are met.
