What worries me about the silicone that is sold in stores, it really reeks of vinegar and from what i read it is for a reason - it does either exude acetic acid when curing or something to that effect.
Acid could damage wires.

Maybe it's an empty scare but I do not like acid smell near copper wiring.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
