APPLICATION:
NYC Certified Plenum Rated Fire Alarm Cable is used for wiring fire alarms, smoke detectors, voice communications, burglar alarms, and approved for NYC LL39 (formerly LL5) fire protective circuits installed in the City of New York. Applications not to exceed 300 volts, suitable for use up to 200°C.
CONDUCTORS:
Fully annealed solid bare copper per ASTM B3 & B258.
ASSEMBLY:
Insulated conductors cabled together with or without shield under an overall jacket. Ripcord and sequential footage markings to facilitate installation.
CONDUCTOR COLORS:
Pair 1 - Black and Red
Pair 2 - Yellow and Green
JACKET COLOR:
Red
INSULATION:
Premium-grade, color-coded FEP.
Why the 16/4 200°C Fire Alarm Cable is the NYC Standard:
Local Law 39 (LL39) Certified: Specifically manufactured with the required NYC-certified print legend to ensure your project passes DOB electrical inspections.
Optimized 16 AWG Conductors: Offers the perfect balance of flexibility and low resistance, making it ideal for both signaling and power-limited circuits.
Premium 200°C FEP Insulation: Built with Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP), this cable offers extreme heat resistance far superior to standard 75°C or 105°C plenum wire.
Unshielded Flexibility: The unshielded 4-conductor design allows for faster stripping and termination, saving valuable labor time on large-scale high-rise installs.
Plenum Rated (FPLP): UL-listed for installation in air-handling spaces without the need for additional conduit.
Installer’s Note:
"Engineered for high-density NYC fire alarm environments, this 16/4 NYC Approved FPLP 200°C cable allows you to run multiple notification circuits in a single pull. By choosing this LL39-compliant FEP jacketed wire, you're not just buying heat resistance—you're getting a cable that pulls easier through tight conduits and terminates faster, all while providing the 200°C survivability required for modern life-safety networks."

New York City requires fire alarm cables to meet specific standards beyond standard NEC rules, specifically Local Law 39 (LL39) and Local Law 5. This means the cable must feature specialized Fluoropolymer insulation (like FEP) that is strictly flame-retardant and low-smoke. These cables carry a high temperature rating (often 200°C), providing a critical safety margin for high-rise life safety systems that standard fire wire cannot match.
Unshielded: Ideal for standard notification appliance circuits (NACs), speaker circuits, and pull stations where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is not a concern. It is more flexible and faster to terminate.
Shielded: Required for data communication links (SLC loops) or installations near high-voltage lines, elevator motors, or heavy fluorescent lighting to prevent signal interference and "nuisance alarms."
In the NYC market, 16/4 Unshielded 200°C cable is a high-capacity "workhorse" for multi-signal and high-power applications:
Important Note: Consult Your Licensed NYC Electrician
While our cables are NYC Approved and manufactured to meet Local Law 39 standards, fire alarm requirements can vary based on your specific building type, occupancy, and the latest FDNY bulletins.
NYC Approved FPLP (Plenum): Must be used in "plenum" spaces (areas used for air circulation). They feature low-smoke, high-fire-resistance jackets.
NYC Approved FPLR (Riser): Used for vertical runs between floors.
Standard Practice: In NYC commercial construction, engineers almost always specify FPLP (Plenum) even for non-plenum areas to ensure maximum system survivability and compliance with Local Law 39.
The primary difference is the gauge (thickness) of the copper and its ability to handle Line Loss and Voltage Drop over distance.
Important Note: Consult Your Licensed NYC Electrician
While our cables are NYC Approved and manufactured to meet Local Law 39 standards, fire alarm requirements can vary based on your specific building type, occupancy, and the latest FDNY bulletins.
Due to its superior heat resistance and durability, this cable is the standard for Commercial High-Rises, Hospitals, Schools, and Industrial Facilities requiring maximum fire survivability and FDNY compliance. These environments use 16/4 cable to ensure:
⚠️ Important Note: Consult Your Licensed NYC Electrician
While our cables are NYC Approved and manufactured to meet Local Law 39 standards, fire alarm requirements can vary based on building type, occupancy, and current FDNY bulletins. Always confirm your wire schedule with your Licensed Master Electrician or Fire Alarm Designer before installation.
