I have an open terrace. Monkeys frequent the area and I've had rats chew through my AC pipes before. How do I protect my DC solar cables?

To protect DC solar cables from rodents and monkeys, the installer MUST route all exposed wiring through heavy-duty **Flexible Steel Conduits** or rigid UPVC pipes. Never leave cables exposed or resting directly on the roof surface. Ensure cable ties used are UV-resistant (black color) or stainless steel, as standard white plastic ties will snap in the sun, letting cables droop.
