Art,
I am guessing you are asking about the new PD panel. I believe the intent is to ship with a nut designed for the power studs. (I don't have time to go look up the spec sheet, but I think they are metric) As I remember, that nut has built in anti-back thread so that it won't come loose. In any installation, some method of locking the turning device is recommended. Also, plan on securing the wiring so that it won't be distrubed when changing batteries.
