The Kidde Genesis LED EGC Series ceiling mount horn delivers clear, high-output audible notification for commercial fire alarm systems. Field-selectable high/low volume and constant or TC3 temporal tone patterns let you match job requirements without swapping hardware. Low-profile design and universal mounting keep installs clean on standard electrical boxes.
Built for the commercial fire installer
The EGCARF mounts to 1-gang, 2-gang, 4-inch octagon, or 4-inch square boxes with the included room side wiring plate (GP10 or GSRW-10). Operating voltage of 16 to 33 VDC or 16 to 33 VFWR means it runs off the NAC circuit without extra power supplies. UL Listed (S218, S5389), ULC Listed (S525, S526), FCC Part 15 compliant, and FM Approved for broad code acceptance across commercial and institutional occupancies.
