Can feed thru lugs be added to the top of the NQ or NF panel on the I-Line combo panel to accept the incoming cables?

Issue:
Can NQ or NF panels, in the I-line combo panel, have thru feed lugs added for a top feed application?

Product Line:
Panelboards

Environment:
I-line combo panel

Cause:
Cables were cut too short and they need to come into the top of the panel.

Resolution:
No. The NF or NQ panel is the sub panel and is fed from the I-line Power Panel or in a duplex application the sub panels can be fed from one of the branch breakers from the I-line Power Panel. The NQ and NF panels were not designed for use with thru feed lugs for any application. However, a subfeed lug kit can be added to the I-line Power Panel if they want to feed another load from the I-line combo panel.
