Paige Electric 2U18026B5 18/2c Stranded CMP/FPLP Yellow 500ft
Overview
The Paige Electric 2U18026B5 is a 500-foot spool of 18-gauge, 2-conductor stranded copper cable designed for low-voltage signaling applications, commonly used for power and data transmission in surveillance systems. Its yellow CMP (Plenum) and FPLP (Fire Alarm Power Limited) ratings ensure compliance with stringent building codes for use in plenum spaces and fire alarm circuits, offering a reliable pathway for power delivery without compromising safety standards. This cable is suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, access control readers, or audio components where a dedicated, code-compliant low-voltage run is required.
Compatibility
This 18/2c stranded copper cable is compatible with any low-voltage system requiring a Class 2 or Class 3 power-limited circuit, including most IP cameras, PTZ controllers, access control panels, and audio/visual equipment that specify 18 AWG stranded wire for power or signaling. Its CMP/FPLP rating makes it suitable for installation in plenum air handling spaces as per NFPA 72 and NFPA 90A requirements.
Installation Notes
The cable features a stranded conductor construction, offering greater flexibility and durability compared to solid core wire, which simplifies installation in tight conduits or complex routing paths. The yellow jacket provides clear visual identification for plenum-rated cable. Ensure termination is performed using appropriate connectors or terminals rated for 18 AWG stranded wire to maintain signal integrity and safety compliance.
