put the end in a junction box, and wire nut all conductors. Put a blank
cover on the box. (mount the box, don't leave it in the dirt)

I found a"hot" unused romex cable laying in the dirt under my house.
I can't get back to the point of origin to disconnect. It is on a GFI
circuit. What is the proper way to safely terminate this wire?
Thanks,
Phil
