In electronics, potting is a process of filling a complete electronic assembly with a solid or gelatinous compound for high voltage assemblies by excluding gaseous phenomena such as corona discharge, for resistance to shock and vibration, and for the exclusion of water, moisture, or corrosive agents. Thermosetting plastics or silicone rubber gels are often used, though epoxy resins are also very common.[1] Many sites recommend using a potting product to protect sensitive electronic components from impact, vibration, and loose wires.[2]
