Description
Solar cable 4 mm2 red with anti-rodent additive (AR)
Photovoltaic cable 4 mm2 with anti-rodent protection (AR) — single-core solar cable in red, specifically designed for PV installations exposed to damage caused by rodents, termites and other pests. The AR additive in the outer sheath effectively deters animals, significantly extending the lifespan of the cabling and eliminating costly repairs.
Why choose the AR version? Rodents are one of the most common causes of photovoltaic installation failures — particularly in ground-mounted systems and on roofs of agricultural buildings. Standard solar cables offer no protection against gnawing. Cable with anti-rodent additive solves this problem at the source, saving time and money on warranty claims and servicing.

Resistance and safety — the cable is fully resistant to UV radiation, ozone and variable weather conditions. It features enhanced resistance to hydrolysis, ammonia, acids and alkalis. Meets flame retardancy requirements according to EN 60332-1, and does not emit aggressive fumes during combustion (compliance with PN-EN 61034-2 and PN-EN 60754-2). Reaction to fire: class Dca according to PN-EN 50575 (CPR).
Direct burial capability — thanks to the use of high-quality insulation materials, the cable is suitable for direct burial in the ground in accordance with UL 854.
Application: cable designed for connections between photovoltaic panels and between panels and inverters. Ideal for ground-mounted power plants, roof installations and facilities exposed to rodents and pests.
Key benefits for installers
- AR protection: eliminates the risk of damage by rodents and termites — fewer warranty claims and service calls
- Halogen-free construction: low smoke emission and toxicity — safety on site
- Versatility: installation indoors, on roofs, on the ground and directly buried
- Long service life: 25 years of operation across a wide temperature range
- Certification: compliance with EN 50618, certificate no. 1200020
Cable cut to length – important information before you buy
This cable is sold by the metre: we cut it from the drum or coil to exactly the length stated in your order, so you only pay for what you actually need. A length cut to your specification is a made-to-order item and therefore cannot be returned – including under the right to cancel distance contracts. Before placing your order, please check the required length and cross-section carefully.
This does not affect your statutory rights: if the cable is faulty, or the length or cross-section delivered does not match your order, please let us know – we will handle your complaint under the general rules.
