Abstract

A strain relief for a plurality of cables comprises two portions which act together to clamp the cables in position without the use of tools in a manner which is intuitive to a user. The first portion has hook elements projecting from a surface, each hook element being for retention of a cable. A second set of hook elements is also provided. A second portion has a cable receiving opening corresponding to the cable receiving opening in the first portion. The second portion latches to the first portion, so as to clamp the cables.
