Abstract

A plurality of electrical conductors or cables are held in place by a cirar member, such as a ring or disk, or by two ring or disk elements forming a pair, to form a conductor or cable bunch. For this purpose a plurality of recesses are provided in the circumferential zone of the ring or disk, for holding a conductor or cable in place in each recess. The recesses in the ring or disk are closed by a rim section. The ring or disk elements have recess forming fingers or pieces which can be rotated into preliminary and final positions with an increased clamping force in the final position. In all embodiments the cable or conductors are held in place by a proper biasing force. The costs for forming cable or conductor bunches and for their final installation have been substantially reduced.
