Abstract
A clip for fixing an end of an electric cable to a support panel, comprises a hollow, tubular body portion and a clamping portion to be introduced into one end of the body portion. A screw passes through the panel, through an opening in the opposite end of the body portion and is threaded in the clamping portion. When the screw is tightened, it draws the clamping portion into the body portion to clamp the cable between an inclined surface of the body portion on a surface of the clamping portion, and also the screw secures the clip to the panel. This surface of the clamping portion is provided with a V-section groove so as to be effective in clamping cables of different diameters.
