Description
Description
FPLR-rated 4-conductor shielded fire alarm cable for riser runs between floors. FPLR is the riser rating under NEC Article 760, required for circuits running through more than 1 floor. Substitutes for FPL; FPLP substitutes for FPLR.
4-conductor construction (Black/Red/Yellow/Blue) provides the two wire pairs a Class A supervisory circuit needs to keep operating and pinpoint a fault if a segment breaks or shorts. Note: NFPA 72 12.3 requires outgoing and return legs of a true Class A circuit routed separately; confirm design and AHJ requirements first. 16AWG offers lower resistance than 18AWG for longer runs; AL-foil shield blocks EMI from motors and panels.
Standards: C(UL) Listed FPLR · UL 1424 · UL 1666 · RoHS Compliant
Technical Specifications:
• Conductor: Solid Bare Copper · AWG: 16 · Conductors: 4 (Black/Red/Yellow/Blue)
• Shield: AL-Foil + Drain Wire (Stranded TC) · Insulation: PVC
• Jacket: FR-PVC FPLR · Rip Cord: Yes · Color: Red
• OD: 0.220 in. · Weight: 51 lbs · Rated Temp: 75°C
