Summary:The present disclosure relates to a cable clamp including first and second clamping members between which a cable is clamped. The first and second clamping members can define a clamping region. The first and second clamping members can be configured to receive the cable in the clamping region when in an open position, and can be configured to clamp the cable in the clamping region when in a closed position. The cable clamp can include a break assist mechanism incorporated with the first and second clamping members. The break assist mechanism can be configured such that the cable breaks when a predetermined axial load is applied to the cable in a first direction along a longitudinal axis of the cable.
