Splice inside block?

[elgato]

I have some slump block columns with post lights on top that I need to raise by about a foot.

The wire comes up the center with no external boxes to splice.

Is there an approved splice for inside the block and what type of box should be used for the fixture on top?

Thank You

I would use an underground splice kit to extend the wire. Connect the wire in the fixture without a box.

Is there not enough slack to turn it out to a j-box on the back side? They didn't fill all the cells all the time on slump block columns.
