I was walking in a parking lot at night and almost bumped into these wires.

I love the color coding, guess they were out of green that day, and white... of course I'll take a poor tape job over some nice, potentially live wires in my face, was the light (I assume this is feeding a light) on?

I wonder if the RV in the background was trying to tap power from the lighting circuit?
