Question
- these wires were noted on the underside of an upper kitchen cabinet. what would you recommend in your report
1
the wires should be cut off if not being used
both sets of wires should have caps on them
the wires should be removed or properly terminated in a junction box
only fluorescent or led lights should be connected under cabinets
the black hot wires should be joined in case they are live
When dealing with exposed wires (especially in a kitchen cabinet setting, related to electrical safety), the proper practice is to remove them or terminate them in a junction box. Cutting wires without proper termination is unsafe, just capping might not be sufficient for loose/exposed wires, restricting to specific lights isn't a solution for existing exposed wires, and joining live hot wires is dangerous. Terminating in a junction box or removing them follows electrical safety standards.
