Description
Prevent the spread of fire, heat and smoke through recessed electrical outlets, switches and power points with the FyrePOWER Fire Rated GPO Switch Wall Box.
Every service penetration through a fire-rated wall must be protected with a tested fire-stopping system. As required by AS1851, passive fire systems must be routinely inspected throughout the life of the building, making system identification and compliance verification critical during annual fire audits.
Tested to AS1530.4-2014, the FyrePOWER Fire Rated GPO Switch Wall Box is easily identifiable after install, making compliance verification simple and hassle free.
Installation does not require sealant in -120/120 plasterboard walls, thus reducing installation time and mess on site. Made for easy installation, designed for easy inspection.
Key Features:
- Easily identifiable for compliance after install – no headaches at inspection!
- No Sealant required for -/120/120 Plasterboard walls! – No mess, Fast and Easy install!
- FRL -/120/20 in a plasterboard wall
- Tested to AS1530.4-2014
- Made of Galvanised Steel with high performance intumescent pad

Easily Identifiable Passive Fire System For Inspections and Audits
Many fire rated GPO / switch systems on the market disappear behind the wall and become impossible to identify once installed, making future inspections and compliance verification difficult.
The FyrePOWER Fire Rated GPO Switch Wall Box includes visible product identification, allowing contractors, inspectors and building owners to verify the installed system during audits, maintenance and compliance reviews.

- Easier compliance verification
- Simplified audits

FAQs
A fire rated GPO box is a fire stopping system designed to maintain the fire resistance level (FRL) of fire-rated walls where electrical outlets, switches or power points penetrate the wall.
Where electrical penetrations occur within fire-rated walls, an appropriate tested fire stopping system may be required to maintain the wall’s fire resistance performance.
The system has been tested to achieve an FRL of -/120/120 in approved 2-hour plasterboard wall constructions.
No. Under tested installation conditions, no sealant is required, allowing for a cleaner and faster installation process.
Unlike many fire rated GPO boxes, the FyrePOWER system includes visible identification on the inside of the Fire Rated GPO Box, making it easier to verify the installed system during inspections and audits.
