I said along time ago in a similar thread:

To guarantee working clearances aren't violated, you'd have to post an armed guard 24-7 until final punch-out.

Don't have a pix, but they even got me on the Greenbrier Spring House 9... (A 1200 sq ft basement and they put a workbench in front of my panel...)

My idea, which still won't be fool-proof, is to make a 30" x 36" "un-welcome" mat with the following words printed on it:

This space dedicated to electrical equipment as per National Electrical Code 110.16(A). Any violation will result in back-charge!
