Ah. That makes sense. However, all of the cables that are already rotating on that hinge are signal cables, travelling through an O-channel, rectangular channel. That should pass inspection should it? If I should wire the 6 gauge wire through the same channel, will it also pass inspection? The channel is spanning vertically though the robot, and is about 3 feet long.

Thank you so much!
