18/2 Solid Fire Alarm Cable – FPLP Plenum Rated, 1000ft Blue Spool, Unshielded

Description

18/2 Fire Alarm Cable – Solid Unshielded | FPLP Plenum Rated | 1000ft Spool | Blue

This 18/2 Fire Alarm Cable is designed for safe, code-compliant use in fire alarm and emergency systems — especially in installations where plenum-rated (FPLP) cabling is required by building code. Featuring two solid 18 AWG bare copper conductors, it delivers dependable signal strength and reliability across long distances, so your life-safety systems respond the moment they’re needed.

The low-smoke PVC jacket meets stringent FPLP (Fire Power-Limited Plenum) safety standards, making this cable suitable for installation in air-handling spaces such as HVAC ducts, drop ceilings, and plenum return areas. Supplied on a 1000ft spool in a distinctive blue jacket, it’s built for commercial and large-scale projects where fire code compliance is non-negotiable.

Why Choose This FPLP Fire Alarm Cable?

When lives are on the line, cable quality isn’t the place to cut corners. This 18/2 Fire Alarm Cable uses solid bare copper — not copper-clad aluminum — ensuring low resistance and stable signal delivery to smoke detectors, pull stations, and notification appliances even over extended runs. The plenum-rated jacket means one cable handles your entire building, including the air-circulation spaces where standard cables are prohibited by code.

The unshielded construction keeps the cable flexible and easy to pull through conduit and cable trays, while the blue jacket makes fire alarm circuits instantly distinguishable from other low-voltage wiring in crowded ceilings and risers.
