So they likely have buried power from the road that looks like it's significantly uphill from the house. The handhole at the top of the hill was probably improperly installed below the flood line in a ditch that flooded. The pipes are siphoning the ditch water into the house. I know of a multi million dollar church this happened to and flooded the basement with 4' of water. One can of great stuff foam for $5 would have saved this homeowner over 100k in damages.
