Ran across this in my duties as the "house electrician" for my theatre. Thought its bring some head scratching and shaking.
This was in our basement of our main building. Based on history my guess was this was disconnected about 8-10 years ago following a bathroom addition.
It was connect and live, wired as a 220 line. The black and green cut off was inside the flex conduit. The entire 25' run attached to and wrapped around the copper water pipes. I seriously am unsure how no one was electrocuted. Sadly, not the worst electrical issue I've found in this place that treasures it's volunteer helpers.
