I'm after some advice if anyone can offer it!
I live in a remote area and had an electrician come in to fix a light problem (light circuit was not working but oven/aircon/etc were). They fixed the lights but have left some exposed wiring on an external wall which we are a bit uneasy about (and it takes a lot of effort to get any other electricians to come out to have a look so we have to rely on the one who did the work).
I have attached a pic (if it works) of how some wiring was left after the job. As you can see in the pic, the wires are exposed to the elements and within reach of people. We don't know if they are connected or not, but there was a box at the end of a pipe running down the wall and now it is just wires hanging out. Is this a problem? Safety concern? Does it need to be fixed - urgently or whenever? Or should we just ignore it?
Many thanks!
