We have our low voltage communication wire going from each inverter solar edge 40 in all, we ran direct burial sunresistant sprinkler wire, The owner think there's gonna be a problem with rodents chewing on expose wire, the wire is hooked up already I don't want disconnect the wire and run a piece of conduit then reconnect, does anybody have a easy solution, I was thinking something like that black mesh type plastic that they put on the wires for cars, I'm not sure of the name thanks

here's what i do for very short (foot or so), exposed runs of Enphase trunk cable between arrays: cut a section of nonmetallic flexible conduit, PVC, (Seal Tite, Liquid Tite) lengthwise, splitting it, place it over wire, then ziptie it shut with a couple quality black zipties.

might work for you?
Screw to wall with conduit strap if it hangs on weak comm. cable too much.
