Question: Running 6 gauge MC/Armoured Cable into panel

[Spidey]

Can an electrician on the site confirm if a plastic bushing is required on a squeeze connector for 6 gauge metal clad cable running into a main panel? The squeeze connector I bought only came with a metal bushing.

It will be a 50A breaker feeding either a 6-50 or 14-50 receptacle inside a garage. Uses will range from welder, RV, EV charger, and maybe even a plasma cutter. Depends what I get up to in retirement.

Thanks

Yes, the plastic bushing is required by code .

Thank you. I picked up a plastic bushing. I guess I'll have to be a little more careful when tapping it with a screwdriver head to tighten.
