Mounting 2009 Controller and Components

We just received the prelim kit of parts including the 2009 controller and associated components. The bench test directions specify the mounting of all the components on a peice of plywood or plastic. Is this really necessary. Can it be mounted on a sheet of aluminum instead? We want to mount the components in a sheet alumimun chassis that can be removed from the robot as a single unit to be tested on the bench. Are there rules stating that the controller components must be mounted on a nonconductive base?
