For clarity, that is NOT a 3 phase system, it is a standard 220V panel, 2 hot legs, and a neutral.
Red your installation shows you take pride in your work, but as MH suggested, I always put a U-loop in the wires, not so much for water, but so I have length enough to move breakers up and down in the box.
I am frequently appalled at the sloppy wiring being done in new VERY expensive homes, constructed by some of the mega nationwide home builders, along with poor foundation and for that matter, most of the work.
Best I have seen recently was in eastern Ohio where the Amish or Mennonites, were doing a lot of the construction. You could drive through the subdivision and tell from the road, which homes they were working on.
