Wiring outside - Outside junction box?


I am away for a few days visiting my in-laws in the Derbyshire dales. To be honest I would not normally be blogging when on holiday, lol! But I felt that this was one I really had to post on my electricians blog. I am sure that if all electricians are like me, we spend more time sorting out electrical problems in customers houses and seldom get time to sort out our own or our close families.
The picture I took I noticed was on the facia board at my partner Kay’s parents home.
To be honest I have not had the time nor my tools! To make further investigations into the electrical system of the property but I have advised to them that I need to come back at some point to inspect and test the property as I have explained to them that an internal junction box should not be used in this way! Even the cables I am not happy about. I have also explained that until I can come back with my tools and meter I do not even want to open or touch any of the electrics in the property as this may open up a can of worms!
I have also taken more pictures of the electrics in the property and over the next few days I will post more of my electricians blog findings.
