Securing electrical devices
First Claim
1. An electrical cable comprising:
- a first conductive strip and a second conductive strip, each conductive strip including;
a longitudinally continuous electrical conductor;
an electrically conductive thermoplastic resin in contact with the electrical conductor and having a lower electrical conductivity than the electrical conductor, the electrically conductive thermoplastic resin forming both an exposed surface of the cable and a field of fastener element stems extending from the exposed surface; and
an electrically insulative base extending between and joining the first conductive strip and the second conductive strip and electrically isolating the first conductive strip from the second conductive strip.

Abstract
An electrical cable includes first and second conductive strips and an electrically insulative base extending between and joining the first and second conductive strips and electrically isolating the first conductive strip from the second conductive strip. The first and second conductive strips each include an electrically conductive thermoplastic resin in contact with a longitudinally continuous electrical conductor, the electrically conductive thermoplastic resin having a lower electrical conductivity than the electrical conductor. The electrically conductive thermoplastic resin forms an exposed surface of the cable and a field of fastener elements extending from the exposed surface. Lighting systems and electrical fastening devices include similar features.
