1. An encapsulated assembly comprising electric components on a board; support pillars mounted on and projecting outwardly from at least one of the major surfaces of the board; connector pins for the components extending outwardly from the board; a mass of foamed silicone rubber encapsulating the board and components so that the outer ends of the support pillars are substantially flush with the surface of the mass and the ends of the connector pins extend outwardly beyond the surface of the mass; and a mass of substantially rigid epoxy resin compound encapsulating said foamed rubber mass from which resin compound mass the outer ends of the connector pins only project. 2. An encapsulated assembly according to claim 1 wherein said mass of epoxy resin compound is secured to a mounting chassis by means of adhesive. 3. An encapsulated assembly according to claim 2 wherein said chassis supports electrical connector means which is electrically connected with the projecting ends of the connector pins by wiring connections. 4. An encapsulated assembly according to claim 3 wherein said mass of epoxy resin compound, mounting chassis andd wiring connections are together encapsulated in a further mass of substantially rigid epoxy resin compound from which the connector means only projects. 5. An encapsulated assembly according to claim 1 wherein said support pillars project from both major surfaces of said board. 6. An encapsulated assembly according to claim 1 wherein said board is of rectangular form and there are four said support pillars, one positioned towards each corner of the board.
