safety cable
Fall prevention cord
A safety cable is a secondary attachment designed to catch equipment if the primary mounting fails.
In stage lighting and audio, safety cables loop through fixtures and anchor to overhead structures, preventing heavy equipment from falling on performers or audiences.
The same principle applies in automotive (trailer hitches), aviation, and industrial rigging—anywhere a backup tether provides redundancy against catastrophic failure.
