I have uncovered this 'thing' underneath some stud wall. I would like to remove it if possible.
Q1. What is it? I assume some kind of old electrical supply.
Q2. How do I work out if it is safe to cut out and pull off the wall? Some of the massive cables have previously been angle grinded through, and anything coming out of it in my unit definitely has no current, however there are some cables that go up into the unit above me (which I am unable to access). I have waved a non-contact pen all over it and it seems to be dead; however I'm curious if there is anything else I can do to avoid potentially massive amount of volts flowing through me.
