The Kidde Genesis LED EG1R-P is a compact wall-mount fire alarm horn built for commercial notification circuits where space is tight and current draw matters. At just 3 x 4-5/8 inches, it mounts flush on standard electrical boxes and pulls as little as 13mA on low - letting you load more devices per NAC circuit without hitting panel limits.

Built for the commercial fire installer

The EG1 Series fits 1-gang, 2-gang, 4-inch octagon, and 4-inch square boxes without adapters or special trim. Field-selectable high/low dBA output (85/92 dBA reverberant/anechoic on high) and constant or T3 temporal patterns adjust at the device via DIP switches - no reprogramming at the FACP. UL 464 and UL 1638 listed. Operates on 16-33 VDC or filtered full-wave rectified power.

Key features

  • Compact low-profile design: smallest Genesis form factor at 3 x 4-5/8 x 1-1/8 inches
  • Universal box mount: fits 1-gang, 2-gang, 4-inch octagon, and 4-inch square without adapters
  • Low current draw: 13mA DC on low setting - load more devices per NAC circuit
  • Field-selectable output: high/low dBA and constant/T3 temporal via DIP switches
  • Plug-in design: snap onto the base for fast installation and simplified maintenance
  • UL 464 and UL 1638 listed for commercial fire alarm applications

System requirements

Connects to any FACP NAC circuit providing 16-33 VDC or 16-33 VFWR. Uses standard 12-18 AWG wiring. Compatible with Genesis mounting bases for the EG1 Series.

FAQs

What electrical boxes does the EG1 Series fit?
Fits 1-gang, 2-gang, 4-inch octagon, and 4-inch square boxes directly. No adapters or special trim required.
How does the low current draw help on NAC circuits?
The EG1R-P draws just 13mA DC on the low setting. That means you can load more notification devices per NAC circuit before hitting your panel's rated output limit - fewer circuits, less wire, faster installs.
Can I change the dBA output and signal pattern in the field?
Yes. DIP switches on the device let you select high or low dBA output and choose between constant and T3 temporal patterns without reprogramming at the FACP.
Does this horn work with filtered full-wave rectified (FWR) power?
Yes. Operates on 16-33 VDC or 16-33 VFWR, covering both regulated and unregulated NAC outputs from any compatible fire alarm control panel.
What is the Genesis LED EG1 Series?
Kidde's most compact notification appliance line. Available as horns, strobes, or horn-strobes in red or white with FIRE or plain markings. All EG1 models share the same low-profile plug-in design and universal box mount.
