Let's look at 410.30....
One of the disregarded items when it comes to repairing of underground lighting circuits....
"(2) Where raceway risers or cable is not installed within the pole, a threaded fitting or nipple shall be brazed, welded, or attached to the pole opposite the handhole for the supply connection. "
The KO hole in the handhole may have been a previous patch job.
I usually trip over this situation while passing thru the lots to do another inspection; naturally...noone has a clue who did it, when, or why.
The landlord/owner has corrections made after a violation is issued.
