Shielded Plenum Cable for Fire Alarm Systems

This 1000 ft reel of Carol E3614S.41.03 communication cable is built for fire alarm and audio installations requiring plenum-rated wiring. It features four solid 16 AWG conductors with foil shielding and a red PVC jacket rated for 300 volts.

Suited for installers running code-compliant alarm

The cable meets NEC Articles 725 CL3P, 760 FPLP and 800 CMP for plenum spaces, making it appropriate for commercial fire alarm and audio systems. It is not suitable for installers who need stranded conductors for flexible routing or those requiring a higher conductor count for multi-zone panels.

The 16 AWG solid conductor size sets the voltage

With four solid 16 AWG conductors and a 0.2 in outside diameter, this cable determines the maximum run length before voltage drop affects device operation on a 300 V circuit. The foil shield adds noise rejection for audio and signalling integrity.

Questions about this item

What voltage-rated circuits can share a pathway with the 300 V CL3P / FPLP / CMP jacket?

NEC permits this 300 V plenum cable in the same raceway only with other circuits rated 300 V or less; higher-voltage power conductors must be separated.

Does the solid 16 AWG foil-shielded construction terminate on legacy screw terminals without ferrules?

Yes — solid 16 AWG conductors fit standard fire-alarm panel terminals directly; strip to the panel's specified length and tighten.

How do I verify the 0.2 in diameter cable is seated correctly after pulling 1000 ft?

Measure the jacket OD at several points with a caliper; consistent 0.2 in readings confirm the cable was not kinked or crushed during installation.
