I need to know what the yellow cable is. Whether it is listed for a wet location and allowed in conduit.

This is a J-box on a roof for a solar array. He opened the cover and found two wires that have separated. He has his hand on the wire nut because he was going to remove the wire nut, twist the wires together, and replace the wire nut. For just a minute, I thought about letting him do it.

The contractor is the same creep that ripped off the old lady http://www.thebuildingcodeforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6666&page=23&p=125623#post125623http://www.thebuildingcodeforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6666&page=23&p=125623#post125623

There's 24" between the wall and new panel. He protested that Edison spotted it there. I explained that the panel is not the problem, it's the wall that doesn't belong there.

The cable goes to an A/C condenser that was replaced. The disconnect and conduit were replaced but the cable was reused. There is no marking on the cable that I can see. It's a "Sears" contractor.
