I was swaping out an old fp for a new cutler n hammer after removing the plaster and taking out the existing panel i noticed that their are 4 14awg nm branchcircuits runing through the top plate and coming out the bottom sillplate in the bay that the panel is in.I could not move the panel bc theirs no slack on the feeder or the bcs coming in to the panel. i called the journey man and he told me to just make shure that the romexs are pressed behind the panel sandwitched to the plaster witch i did.The install is not being inspected but if it was would an inspector flag it suddenly that its not an 1''1/4 of protection if a screw were to come through the plaster .And how would you get around this
