The electric panel is something into which electrical wire sheathing shouldn't project more than about an inch. There are recommended guidelines, and non recommended actions, in electrical work. This is such a case, of recommended actions regarding sheathings and panels.
Electrical wire sheathing should not project more than about one inch into the electric panel.
Electric Panel ---------------------------- Based on the answers you have proposed, Electric Panel is the correct choice. However, I do not know of any requirement in the NEC that prohibits the sheathing from extending further into the panel. There is a requirement that it must extend through the connector, but I know of no NEC requirement on when it must stop. --Sparkfighter
When I wire a panel, the outer insulation of the romex does not extend past the romex connector, after the actual conductors have been neatly shaped to the ground / neutral bar and the line has been brought to the breaker the insulation of the hot & neutral is then stripped exposing 1/4 inch of copper then landed.
Usually the screws are 6-32 oval head. Length 1/2 inch.
The screw size is a 6-32. This relates to diameter size of #6 and 32 threads per inch. The length for receptacles is usually 3/4 of an inch.
Electrical wire sheathing should not project more than about one inch into the electric panel.
No, it shouldn't. Electrical work revolves around recommended and non recommended procedures. In this case, the sheathing needs to project no more than about one inch into the electrical panel.

Electrical wire sheathing should not project by more than one inch into where the wire terminates into a specific device. An example is a junction box or branch circuits terminating into a distribution panel.
