Condenser motor splice
This isn't to Code

First off, we start at 110.12, which requires a "neat and workmanlike" installation, and this pretty clearly flunks that test since the wires could get weighted down into the fan blades with obvious bad consequences.

Second, I'd take this as a violation of 300.15, which requires splices to be in a box or other sort of enclosure (such as the motor terminal housing), save for a few exceptions that don't apply here.

Finally, I'd be asking what's under all that electrical tape for a splice...there are some definite 110.14 questions there.
