My company puts 480 volt fan motors in temps to 250F and 100% humidity. The motor leads are bolted to the line leads, then wrapped with this kind of silicone fusing tape. We also use it over the soldered leads of the temperature sensors. You stretch and wrap, then with temperature it fuses into a silicone ball. Once it fuses you cannot un-wrap it, just cut it out.
