They sound like ELV lights powered from a small PV cell and maybe a battery or capacitor, so I can't see him getting much of a shock if he decides to "splice" the wires.
Sounds like there's 2 +ve wires to make them flash, and a common neg.... Or maybe they're 3 phase...

Other way around - lamps are what you plant in the ground to grow lamp posts.
Edison invented the light bulb, not the light lamp.
