16/4 Plenum (FPLP) Fire Alarm Cable
Designed for power-limited fire alarm systems, this 16/4 FPLP plenum-rated cable features four solid bare copper conductors with a low-smoke PVC jacket for safe installation in environmental airflow spaces. The thicker 16 AWG conductors provide lower resistance and higher current capacity, making this cable ideal for longer runs and demanding applications including smoke detectors, fire protection systems, and control circuits.
Trust UL and ETL-listed quality for your critical life-safety systems. This USA-made fire alarm cable delivers the reliability and performance needed when lives depend on instant response from your fire detection and notification systems.
