i have a question about what's required at the shop subpanel relative to clamping at the entrance to the panel -- i.e. where the knockouts are. I have a 100Amp service coming from the house the shop sub-panel. Here's my questions
- does the 100Amp service need to be seperated from all other circuits ... where it enters the panel? I'm sure i'm not wording this super well but does the service need to go through a knock-out all by itself or can it share that with any of the circuits?
- does everything have to pass through a "clamp-able" connector? Or do i just need to insert something (like a male threaded pvc nipple w/a screw on fitting to hold it in place) that keeps the romex from touching the box where the knockout has been removed.
- if everything does need to be clamped, how does one know how many circuits/clamp are permitted -- is it based on current (and thus temperature).
Any guidance you can give me would be appreciated.
