This article covers the fundamentals of percolation phenomenon giving emphasis to the percolation concept involved in disordered electrochemical systems. After a brief discourse on the basic concepts of percolation theory, the geometrical properties and fractality of percolation clusters were presented. Then, anomalous behaviours of diffusion in percolation clusters were explained in terms of the fractal structures of the infinite percolation clusters. Finally, the conductivity-related properties of composite ionic materials were shortly discussed on the basis of percolation theory from practical points of view.
