A cable leadthrough device for leading a cable through an opening in a wall, having a housing that can be fastened in the area of the opening, wherein the cable can be led through the housing along a leadthrough channel parallel to a leadthrough axis, and also having a strain relief device—with at least one clamping element for clamping a cable led through the leadthrough channel, wherein the clamping element is mounted so as to be movable on the housing, by a guide device, along a guide axis inclined in relation to the leadthrough axis, between a clamping position, in which it radially narrows the leadthrough channel, and a release position, in which it releases the leadthrough channel, and a force application system being provided for generating a driving force with a force component that acts along the guide axis and pushes the clamping element towards its clamping position.
