I did industrial maintenance for about 6 years and saw plenty of that kind of mess around some of the older plants. One incident I remember was tracing a wire while trying to get a remote panel working that operated a pump down at the wash out pit from either the leg of one of the silos, or from the control room. The one wire I was tracing changed colors at every junction box it went through, which was quite a few. Heck we even had one 120V circuit that we never figured out where it was fed from. Stopped in to visit one day several months after I left and they had a contract crew onsite doing some electrical work for them. They asked me if I knew/remembered where the circuit fed from as they had spent several hours looking and come up with nothing. Guess they had to do work on it live like I did every time there was a problem.

Now I"m on the equipment side of things and bad as I hate to say it, some of the stuff I"ve seen on equipment makes what your showing in the pics look like it ought to be in top tier nuclear plant. I mean you can always tell when an "electrician" has been working on the wiring when you find wire nuts, split bolt clamps, etc used on a machines electrical system. Once worked on a machine that had an extra alternator installed to charge a single 12V battery because the guy adding the cooling fan (bought from a auto salvage yard) had no idea you could pull 12V off of a 24V system as long as the hot and ground both came off the same battery.
