Abstract
An aerial cable spacer is provided with a cable retainer. The cable retainer includes a cable seat and a cable retaining arm. A resilient pad is secured to either or both of the cable seat and the cable retaining arm. With a cable located in the cable seat and the cable retaining arm closed upon the cable, the resilient pad is compressed and acts like a spring to maintain a force on the cable.
