Wirepath SP-182-1000-RED 18 Awg Fire Shielded Wire

Product Description

The WIREPATH SP-182-1000-RED is an 18 AWG fire shielded solid conductor wire supplied on a 1000-foot drum. Fire shielded wire is constructed to meet the demands of alarm, notification, and life-safety wiring installations where code compliance and circuit integrity under heat exposure are required. The solid conductor construction provides reliable continuity in low-voltage signal and control circuits. This wire is commonly installed by licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians working on fire alarm, security, and related life-safety systems.

This wire is suited for residential and light commercial fire alarm and life-safety wiring applications. The 1000-foot drum format is practical for new construction rough-ins and larger retrofit projects where pulling long runs is necessary. The red jacket color is a widely recognized convention for fire alarm circuit wiring, aiding identification during inspection and service.

Key Features

• 18 AWG solid conductor construction for stable low-voltage signal circuits
• Fire shielded rating suitable for life-safety and alarm system wiring
• Red jacket color for easy identification in fire alarm installations
• 1000-foot drum quantity minimizes splicing on longer runs
• Sold as a single drum unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard supply wire for residential and light commercial fire alarm, security, and life-safety control circuit wiring applications requiring 18 AWG fire shielded solid conductor wire.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out all related circuits before making connections. Observe minimum bend radius guidelines to avoid conductor damage during pulls. Verify that the wire rating meets the requirements of the specific fire alarm panel and circuit type before installation.
