Claim:
A cable clamp for an electrical cable, comprising: a first member and a second member configured to cooperatively retain a cable between them; wherein the first member has been formed by extrusion in the general axial direction of a cable as it is to be retained in the clamp to produce a constant axial cross-section of the first member, at least a portion of the axial cross-section of the first member comprising a receiving part having a curved shape within which a portion of the cable is to be located, and a flange extending from either side of the receiving part; the second member is attachable at either end to a flange of the first member so as be configured to retain the cable within the receiving part of the first member, wherein the first member is in the form of a saddle that is curved in a plane that is parallel to the general axial direction of the cable; and wherein the length of the first member is longer in the general axial direction of the cable than the length of the second member in the general axial direction of the cable and wherein the flange extends along the entire length of the first member.
