Default Moved the hot water switch inside

I didn’t like having the switch for the electric water heater function on the outside. So I moved it inside onto the control panel in front of the sink. Here’s some pictures of how I did it, and the links to the switch and mounting plate on Amazon. I used rubber grommets to fill the hole where the old switch came out and tucked the existing leads, and the new extension leads back into that hole for safety and appearance. I ran the two new extension leads through the little rubber grommet hole that has the brown wire in it below and to the left of the old switch location. That hole was not quite big enough for three wires so I drilled it out and put a larger rubber grommet in there. Are used 12 gauge wire, but 14 gauge would be adequate for the 15AMP circuit.
