Damping

From Mass Effect Wiki

Damping is a tech talent available to engineers and infiltrators. Damping increases the explosion radius on your tech proximity mines, and shuts down enemy tech and biotic abilities. This makes it a useful defensive talent when facing large groups of enemies or strong biotics like asari commandos. In conjunction with Sabotage, Damping can render enemies virtually helpless, giving you a prime opportunity to use your shotgun or hit them with grenades.
