What does F.P.L.P stand for?

Fire Protection Limited Plenum
Fire Panel Low Power
Power Limited Fire Alarm Plenum
Fire Limited Power Plenum

The correct answer is: Power Limited Fire Alarm Plenum

F.P.L.P stands for Power Limited Fire Alarm Plenum. This term is used in the context of fire alarm systems and refers to a specific type of wiring that is designed to minimize the potential for conducting power that could lead to a fire hazard. Power-limited circuits ensure that the electrical current is maintained within safe limits, which is particularly important in plenum spaces where air circulation for HVAC systems occurs. These plenum-rated cables are meant to be used in spaces that carry environmental air and must meet certain flammability ratings and other safety standards to reduce the risk of fire and smoke propagation. Using power-limited fire alarm plenum wiring helps ensure that the fire alarm system operates effectively while adhering to safety regulations. The other choices refer to terms that may sound similar but do not accurately describe the function and regulatory requirements associated with fire alarm systems and wiring in plenum spaces.
