U-Bolt properly applied
Good Practice
This image shows an example of a safe work practice.
Summary Statement
This U-Bolt has been properly applied because the strongest part is the clear rounded section that holds the dead end of the cable, which poses the greatest risk of slipping. The "saddle" portion is against the live section. Memory aid: never saddle a dead horse.
