My Breaker panel will be hinged at the bottom, the idea being future maintenance, you just have to tip the panel out to get to the bus bars. In order to support the wire bundles I want to use a cushion clamp attached to the bus bar. I have a a tie for two rows of breakers that is held together with #8 screws, this is a convenient place for a cushion clamp. You can see the clamp in the photo.
The clamp is totally cushioned, (WDG type) so the wires will not touch any metal, but there would be voltage running trough the metal part of the clamp. I wonder if this could cause problems? It would take more work but I can fashion a standoff attached to the panel to make the same support. Just wonder if the easy route will work.
Thanks for the help
