Abstract

A self-sealing apparatus for containing electrical energy associated with electrical components. The apparatus includes one or more removable devices maintained by a housing. Each of the removable devices contains electrical components therein and is separated from at least one other removable device by a clearance gap formed therebetween. A self-sealing barrier can be formed from the clearance gap, wherein the clearance gap surrounds the removable device in order to contain electrical energy associated with the electrical components when the electrical components are maintained within the removable device or extracted or inserted from or into the removable device.
