Abstract: This invention relates to a fixing device for holding a fastener in a hole in a structure comprising an actuating part configured to engage with said fastener in use and a plurality of arms extending from and hingedly connected to the actuating part, each arm comprising a distal portion and an anchor portion between the distal portion and the actuating part. The arms are an insertion configuration formed or formable by moving the arms from an initial configuration in which the arms are splayed to the insertion configuration in which the arms are substantially aligned so that the distal portions define an axial passage and, in use, the fastener extends through the axial passage to engage with the actuating part, and cooperation of the fastener with the actuating part moves the actuating part in an axial direction towards the distal portions to cause a part of each of the anchor portions to move in a radially outward direction with respect to the axial passage to anchor the fixing device in said hole.

Abstract: An identification tag for an electrical cable. The identification tag may provide enhanced safety between the cable and another component, and may include a collar and a tab. The collar may include a bore for receiving a part of the cable. The bore may extend between first and second ends of the collar. The collar may also include an abutment surface for limiting the insertion of the cable end through the bore. The collar may further include an outer surface having a profile such that an outer diameter of the collar is smaller at the second end than at the first end and the outer diameter of the collar decreases gradually from the first end to the second end. The tab may be connected to and extend from the collar, wherein the tab may include identification symbols for identifying the cable.
