Description:
The Fire Alarm Cable, FPLP (Plenum), 16/2 - 1000ft Spool is a type of cable that is specifically designed for use in fire alarm systems. It is made with two 16 gauge solid copper conductors and is wrapped in a plenum-rated (FPLP) jacket, which is a type of insulation that is specifically designed to prevent the spread of smoke and fire in the event of a fire.
The cable comes in a spool of 1000 feet, making it ideal for use in larger installations. The 16/2 designation refers to the size and number of conductors in the cable, with 16 gauge wire being suitable for transmitting power and signals in a fire alarm system.
FPLP rated cables are designed to be used in plenum spaces, which are areas within a building where air circulates for heating and cooling purposes. These spaces are required to have special fire safety regulations, which is why the FPLP rating is important. This cable is suitable for use in plenum spaces because it is made with materials that are low-smoke, low-toxicity, and flame-retardant.
Overall, the Fire Alarm Cable, FPLP (Plenum), 16/2 - 1000ft Spool is a reliable and safe option for use in fire alarm systems, especially in larger installations.
