Abstract: A line support for a post insulator includes a support bracket secured to the post insulator and carrying a saddle forming a channel extending in the direction of the line. A pair of opposed pins extend into the channel of the saddle from opposite sidewalls to hold a line clamp in place in the channel, and a retainer loop extends over the channel above the line clamp. The pins are formed to shear for releasing the clamp from the saddle channel under stress somewhat less than the strength of the insulator so that extraordinary tension on the line shears the pins to release the clamp rather than breaking the insulator.
