Hi,
here you see my modification for the heatbed cable:
s14.directupload.net/images/140222/3oetaxjh.jpg
With this modification it’s impossible that the cable touches the X belt. I made the part from aluminium, but it’s an easy part that could also be printed. Dimensions are 103mm x 20mm x 10mm, the groove for the cable is 14mm wide and 7mm deep. You need two M4 distance bolts, length 25mm.

You should add that part to Thingiverse! I would download and print it asap 
This is the code for OpenScad that should do the job. I haven’t tested it, because I made my part from aluminium before my printer was ready to print.

$fn=36;
difference() {
cube([103,20,10]);
translate([-1,3,3]) cube([105,14,8]);
translate([-1,-1,3]) cube([10,22,8]);
translate([2,-1,-1]) cube([4,2,5]);
translate([2,19,-1]) cube([4,2,5]);
translate([10,10,-1]) cylinder(h=5,r=2);
translate([10,10,1]) cylinder(h=2.1,r1=2,r2=4.1);
translate([93,10,-1]) cylinder(h=5,r=2);
translate([93,10,1]) cylinder(h=2.1,r1=2,r2=4.1);
}
The flat cable with 16 wires is mentioned as possibly have too small diameter wires for some loads like motors, heatbed.
Has somebody tried to use thicker wires, or this is not an issue?

This is not an issue. I’m using up to 5A from an external power supply for faster heating up the heatbed with a thick 4.7mm glass plate, with the standard flat cable.

Thanks!
A remix of the same thing. Parameteric openSCAD gives you a choice of wall heights and width.

There are also some parameteric openSCAD posts instead of the metal ones. These things will need drilling out. Try a drill 0.5mm less than the screw you use.
By far the best K8200 cable bridge I have used and there have been quite a few.
