ABSTRACT:
A device to be mounted on a support member for holding a conductor in a substantially fixed position extending generally parallel to the support member. The device includes a bracket having an arm with at least one opening therein and a clamp having a head and at least one leg projecting from the head adapted for reception in the opening in the arm. The leg of the clamp is movable in the opening in a first axial direction with respect to the leg so that the head of the clamp can be pushed closer to the arm to move the clamp to a clamping position in which the head of the clamp is in clamping engagement with a conductor disposed between the head and the arm. The device further includes a retainer for retaining the clamp in its clamping position. The retainer includes structure on the arm for biting into the leg of the clamp when the clamp is pushed to its clamping position thereby to lock the clamp in its clamping position by inhibiting any movement of the head of the clamp away from the arm after the clamp has been moved to its clamping position.
