An electrician ‘fixed’ an issue by making this hole in a basement cinder block wall.

… how do I put that box back in or fix the wall or something?

Inside the box are two capped (hot) wires.

The pipe seems to be copper. Doesn’t bend or anything. It can’t (at least easily) be pushed back in.

I had wanted to use cement paste… but like what do I do about the box? I guess I could paste everything except the metal pipe but geez: then i still have this sketchy box hanging out.

Any ideas?

    Any chance of disconnecting the wire and pulling it out of the conduit? Then you could cut the conduit off inside the wall with a reciprocating saw or better, an oscillating tool, abandoning it.
