Abstract
The invention relates to a method of accommodating an object which carries current during operation, in particular a capacitor which is provided with a lead in the vicinity of both facing ends, in a synthetic resin housing which is open on one side so that the object can be introduced into a space which is limited by the housing. This space is filled with a curing synthetic resin after the object has been introduced. To prevent the object from floating when the space is filled with synthetic resin, resilient members which partly surround the object are provided in the housing near the ends of the object between the object and the walls of the housing. Each resilient member comprises two legs which are each situated between one of two facing walls of the housing and the object, and which comprise angular portions whose vertices engage against the object and a wall of the housing.
