Pat,
This requires a little more than a simple explanation. If you are talking about the 12 way breaker panel, there are mounting holes built in that are protected (insulated) from the block and no special material is needed. (I think #8 hardware works here or ty-wraps)
If you are talking about the new 40 amp block, it also can be mounted right on the frame but you must be careful. There is a tab sticking out the back that was designed to fit into a slot you can use that for one attachment point. Then on the opposite end of the block there is a protected (shoulder) hole for a mounting bolt. Do not use the attachment point for the electrical tie in for mounting purposes. I am recommending that teams be very careful when using this new block, (use an insulator under the electrical bolt to insure it does not contact the frame) and to mount it in a protected area where another robot won't accidentally contact the block during comp.
