A guide system to enable installation of a cable tie on a supporting element by passing the cable tie through a first passage to traverse the supporting element, then through a second passage to come back to the same side of the supporting element, enabling the cable tie to surround one or more cables. The guide device includes a gutter with a guide surface with two curves, a first longitudinal curve enabling the surface to extend from a passage to the other passage and a second transverse curve forming a partial envelope for receiving the cable tie and guiding and holding the cable tie in the gutter. The device also has at least one protrusion with a wedging surface projecting from the surface of the gutter to come into contact with and wedge against the supporting element to lock the gutter in position in relation to the supporting element.

Method and system with two curves for guiding a cable tie

A support for a busbar including two parts each having two surfaces substantially planar and perpendicular to one another and arranged to form, together with the two surfaces of the other part from the two parts, a through-cavity or a passage, a base including a hole or a fastener, and, a shape complementary to a shape of the other of the two parts, the shape being arranged to form, together with the shape of the other of the two parts, an attachment between the two parts. Advantageously, it is possible to obtain a support for a busbar, the support being robust, reliable, and inexpensive and able to be mounted in an easy and rapid manner.
