This all on same breaker. Left, spliced wires are hot, but do nothing and there's no switch for them.
Wires on the right are on a switch that controls two other lights closer to the breaker.
Can I just removed the splice and terminate the hot wires into a box mounted on the rafter?
i think the spliced goes to these wires, then leads somewhere else?
It says "electrical tape" right on the package. This is fine.
/sarcasm
I asked for the provenance of such handiwork. Unclear!
