Really? If there's a chance the cable could be put under strain, shouldn't
it be protected from that by conduit, etc?


No. They are standard pattresses for cooker units. Two grips at
different positions, but only one to be used, depending upon required
orientation. The cable to be secured will be the flexible one to the
cooker and needs to be capable of movement to allow cleaning behind.
