We have had several trees bring the cable down but they put the cable right under them making maintenance much harder. The cable will stretch to ground level after pinging off the pole. Just don't stand on it when you cut the fallen limb or you may lose an appendage.
The contractor just needs to clear 1m round the cable so when the leaves appear the branches are often touching it in first year. I have cut some back. The cable won't be damaged as long as no chain saw is near it.
