A system for cable clip assembly, comprising:

• two or more electrical cable clips, each adapted to secure an electrical cable to a surface;
• means for manually linking a first of said cable clips to a second of said cable clips along a first direction,
• means for securing said electrical cable along a second direction angled with respect to said first direction, and
• means for fastening said cable clips to said surface, and
• means for dispensing said cable clips, said means for fastening is unable to traverse the entirety of said cable clips when said cable clips are disposed within said dispensing means, and
• means for separating a cable clip from a previously installed assembly of manually-linked clips.

A method of fastening one or more electrical cable clips, comprising the steps of:

• (a) placing at least first and second electrical cable clips, each adapted to secure an electrical cable to a surface, in a dispensing sleeve such that a groove portion of said first cable clip is linked to a tongue portion of said second cable clip, along a first direction, said cable clips including a fastening device, said fastening device being unable to traverse the entirety of said cable clips when said cable clips are disposed within said dispensing sleeve;
• (b) securing said electrical cable along a second direction angled with respect to said first direction by fastening said first cable clip to said surface;
• and
• (c) manually separating said first cable clip from said second cable clip.
