Can you splice wires inside a wall?

Can you leave wires in wall?
It is acceptable to leave wire in the wall. Leaving the ends exposed in boxes and wire nut is the only thing you need to do. If someone tries to tie into them in the future, it will cause the breaker to pop.
Can you put masking tape on electrical wires?
It wouldn't be a problem to use electrical tape. You can get it in many different colors. It's possible that masking/painter's tape could ignite or serve as a fuel source, as it's not got the same rated performance in overheating/fire conditions.
Can you run cables horizontally in walls?
Thankfully, they are easy to understand. The top of the wall is a 150mm zone where the cables should run. It runs around the entire wall at the top.
Can you strip a live wire?
You can use insulated pliers to cut a live wire. Is that correct? They can be used to tighten wires.
Can I leave phone wires in wall?
Push in the wall if you want to cut the lines. No need to tape them. Have you ever had a phone line short out that caused the line to go dead? If the short is cleared, the line will go back to normal, but if the short is not cleared, good luck tracking down the short.
Can I connect a black wire to a white wire?
A brass-colored screw terminal or black wire lead is what connects a black or red-hot wire to an electrical device. A white neutral wire connects to a terminal or white wire lead.
