Default Cap off unused outdoor power?

I had my old hot tub removed.

Now there is an unused 240v power coming out of the garage wall in a
conduit, down a few feet to the ground, then run along the edge of the
house about 15 feet, and end with a cable sticking out the conduit,
temporarily wrapped with electrical tapes.

The power is turned off at the breaker panel, of course.

What is the least amount of work to make this code compliant? Can I cut
off the cable flush with the conduit exit, and then put a conduit cap on
it? Do I have to put something at the end of the cut cables to cover the
exposed copper wires?


Feed it backwards with generator back to the box via switchover.
