UL 508A refers us to UL 310 for bushings; UL 486A-486B Table 27 has values
for #30 up to 2000 kCM, but that is only based on cable size, not the weight of
equipment. My non-indexed search didn't come up with anything else through a
dozen or so IEC standards while searching for "retention" or "pullout."
Interesting challenge. You might try ASME standards on the bushings. Colorado

Does anybody know of a standard which describes cable retention force other
than safety standards such as 60601-1 (Medical General Safety) or 60950 (ITE
general safety) and if so can you give me the numbers. The product is about 2
pounds. ITE would say that the value is about 6 pounds.
