Electrical putty vs. silicone for sealing exterior electrical holes?

Apr 02, 2005 3 Replies

I just use regular silicone. GE makes a good silicone. I'm not to familiar with electrical putty.

What is better for sealing around holes in the house where wires enter and exit -- electrical putty or silicone?


Assuming you don't need the additional electrical insulation, then I would use silicone.
