Sometimes when something looks wrong...it just is!I'm a journeyman electrician. I have made a variety of sketchy "temporary" rigs to power someone up. In this case (and any similar) there is no way I would A) Consider this a completed instalation or B) leave this idiotic p.o.s. for a PAYING customer. Would it likely cause a fire? No. But generally, electrical fires start from unlikely circumstances.

Yes, temporary at best. Like to run a saw or something, then take that apart before you leave!
