My conduit is four inches away from the wall will that still pass inspection?

Any chance you can explain how and why it is 4 inches away from the wall? Post photos?
As long as it is supported properly lineally then should be no issue.

OK I am coming through a wall from outside and the fuse box is supported by 2 x 4 s with ply wood spanning the 2 x 4 s. this makes the fuse box 4 + inches from the wall I came through the wall with a 2 inch pvc conduit and used a 90 degree turn to go up into the bottom of the fuse box it looks a little unprofessional. There is no support on the vertical part of the conduit except the retaining nut on the conduit in the fuse box. I was thinking it would not pass like that and that I needed to remove the 2 x 4 support and fasten fuse box directly to the concrete block wall so I could use a bracket on the conduit.

I think what you have will be fine.
