An electrically conductive bridge is formed over a non conductive joint between two or more adjacent electrically conductive panels. The bridge providesa continuous conductive path between the panels. In an exemplary embodiment, the panels form part of a shield against electromagnetic and/or lightning strikeenergy. The bridge is formed by taping an expanded conductive mesh over exposed conductive portions of the panels and applying an epoxy adhesive. During a following cure cycle, vacuum compression is applied. The expanded mesh of the bridge has an out-of-plane cross sectional configuration which remains in contact with the panel conductive portions during cure so that when the adhesive has cured, the bridge mesh and the panel conductive portions are held in contact with each other.
Passerelle conductrice formée au-dessus d'un joint non conducteur entre deux ou plusieurs panneaux électriques conducteurs adjacents. La passerelle sert de chemin conducteur continu entre les panneaux. Dans une version, les panneaux font partie d'un écran contre l'énergie électromagnétique et/ou le foudroiement. La passerelle est formée d'un matériau maillé expansé conducteur, qui est fixé à l'aide d'un ruban gommé et collé avec un adhésif époxyde sur des sections de panneaux exposées et conductrices. Elle est soumise ensuite à un cycle de traitement sous vide. La coupe transversale du matériau maillé expansé de la passerelle possède une configuration hors plan qui reste en contact avec les sections conductrices des panneaux pendant le traitement de sorte que, lorsque l'adhésif est sec, la passerelle maillée et les sections conductrices des panneaux sont jointes.
