I might be mistaken but I think you need at least 1xdiameter from the edge.
Don't take this as law, it's just off the top of my head.
These are the bulkheads I am planning on using.

Looks like its greater than 1.5 " for this bulkhead its listed as 42 mm. That is the size of the diamond hole saw I ordered.

I was thinking of going at least that much out (1") just to be safe. Makes sense...
