For context this PNL and 12 others like it are all fed from a box at the bottom of a pipe riser in the basement. Due to over 60’ minimum of vertical pipe the wires are constantly under pressure by gravity trying to pull them back and are only secured from doing so by 1 screwy back, a few wraps of friction tape, and a zip tie. I speculate that there’s a high enough chance that over a long enough timeframe that those wires could sink back, as the means of securement is essentially just a jerry-rigged mesh grip.

I’ve heard some people say it’s a hanging hook and others say it’s for stripping.
