Abstract

A clamping device includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and a connecting arrangement providing on the first clamping member and the second clamping member. The connecting arrangement is configured to exert a clamping force between the first clamping member and the second clamping member, in such a manner that when the electrical cable slightly deforms due to thermal expansion and contraction, the first clamping member and the second clamping member are arranged to move with respect to each other so as to allow a slight relative movement between the first clamping member and the second clamping member for preventing unwanted damage to the electrical cable.
