The present invention relates to an implantable lead comprising at least one conductive wire and a connector. The connector is configured to be connected to an implantable medical device, such as a cardiac stimulation, a defibrillation or/and a neuromodulation device, and further comprising a strain relief device extending longitudinally along an axis from one end of the connector and essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the connector. The conductive wire is deflected by a deflection wall of the strain relief device such that the deflection wall of the strain relief device blocks the conductive wire against the deflection wall when the conductive wire is stressed in tension, and the deflection wall extends along an axis which is misaligned with the longitudinal axis of the strain relief device.
