I hope the 30A breaker is a double breaker so both sides of the 220
are opened when a fault occurs.

Yup. No worries.


Generally cascading breakers are sized to trip closest to the load. If
the 30A tandem
breaker will protect the wires downstream, I'm not going to get picky.
Code might be
another issue but I'm not going there tonight.

The outside box and the inside panel 30A breakers are about 18 inches
apart....

Might have been better to install a disconnect instead of a mini breaker
panel then anyway.
When it was installed the inside box was a full fuse box, if I
remember the OP's explanation. It was an "expander" box to add an
extra 220 line .
