Problem with cord for Rhp

[CALM Pythons]

I have an AP T8 cage with an 80 watt rhp. The issue is where the power cord exits the cage on the back wall. My boa occasionally crawls up on the wire and thru the space left between the cord and the ceiling.

I'm afraid he is going to damage the rhp connection.

Anyone else deal with this??

I bought some cable/wire clamps but virtually have no room to work inside the T8. Ugh. This is the middle cage sandwiched between two other T8s so I don't want to have to take everything down.

Any other suggestions.

Not sure where your panel is positioned. Because of that exact issue i had AP route my LED'S all the way against the back wall as far as their machine would allow so that I could mount the RHP against it so the cord has no slack and goes strait out the back.
As far as your situation i had something similar with a Thermometer probe wire once and I found plastic clips at Lowes. The PVC is 1/2" so dont use a screw that goes more than 1/4" in after it goes threw the clip into the PVC. You might have to replace the screw that comes with it depending what one you choose. Here are a few that are different but all the same idea.

I think this one is the best. Make sure the gauge is large enough for the size cord you have on the RHP.


This one sticks out more I think. I prefer the first one.


This one is thin and you can Crimp it closed to make it tight. If you use these id crimp then before you screw them in. Its hard to get to after screwed to the enclosure.


Hope this gives you a idea
