SKU:
KD-EG4VRF

The Kidde Genesis LED EG4VRF is a wall-mount visual notification appliance built for commercial fire alarm systems. Multi-candela output (15, 30, 75, or 110 cd) is field-selectable via a single switch on the device, so one SKU covers a range of ADA spacing requirements without swapping hardware.

Built for the commercial fire installer

LED technology draws just 28 mA at any candela setting on DC circuits - significantly less than legacy Xenon strobes, which means more devices per NAC circuit and fewer power supply runs. The low-profile Genesis housing mounts flush to standard 1-gang, 2-gang, 3.5-inch octagon, or 4-inch square boxes (1.5-inch minimum depth). A room-side wiring plate (GP10) is included for clean terminations without pulling the device off the wall.

Key features

  • Field-selectable candela: 15, 30, 75, or 110 cd via single switch - one SKU, multiple spacing requirements
  • Low current draw: 28 mA DC / 36 mA VFWR at all cd settings, maximizing devices per NAC circuit
  • Standard box compatible: mounts on 1-gang, 2-gang, 3.5" octagon, or 4" square electrical boxes
  • Room-side wiring plate included: GP10 plate for field wiring without removing the device
  • UL 1971 and ULC listed: compliant for wall-mounted public-mode visual notification
  • Synchronization ready: works with Kidde CC Series Signal Modules, Booster and Auxiliary Power Supplies

System requirements

Connects to any Kidde Intelligent or Conventional fire alarm control panel NAC circuit. Synchronization requires a Kidde CC Series Signal Module or compatible Booster/Auxiliary Power Supply. Accepts 16-33 VDC or 16-33 VFWR. Wire size: 12-18 AWG.

How many Genesis EG4 strobes can I put on one NAC circuit?
At 28 mA per device on DC, calculate based on your NAC power supply's rated output. Constant current at all cd settings simplifies loading. Use Kidde's NAC calculators for exact counts per supply model.
Does the candela setting affect current draw?
No. The EG4VRF draws the same current (28 mA DC / 36 mA VFWR) at all four candela settings (15, 30, 75, 110 cd). This simplifies NAC loading calculations and lets you adjust spacing coverage without recalculating circuit capacity.
What electrical boxes does this mount to?
Standard 1-gang, 2-gang, 3.5-inch octagon, or 4-inch square boxes with a minimum depth of 1.5 inches. No special hardware or adapter plates required.
Do I need a separate sync module?
For synchronized strobe operation, yes. The EG4VRF synchronizes with Kidde CC Series Signal Modules and Kidde Booster and Auxiliary Power Supplies. Without a sync source, strobes will flash independently.
Is this a strobe-only device or does it include an audible?
Strobe only (visual notification). For audible or combination devices, see the Genesis LED EG4 Series horn or horn-strobe models in the same product family.
