Conductors are attached to the opposite surface otsaid first insulation layer, and a second insulation layer overlaps the conductors. A metallic layer, such as a steel ribbon, is disposed over the second insulation layer.

SHEET 2 BF 2 INVENTOR. EOBEETA/V/OEE/SO/V (not shown) are inserted in apertures 28, they will make contact with conductors 29 and 30. Conductors 29 and 30 are connected to spring-loaded conductors 31, and 32, respectively.
Bracket 33, which may for example, be constructed of bronze, is supported by housing 26 and is fastened between housings 26 and 27. Lip 34 of bracket 33 extends downwardly at the rear of housing 26 to continue the rear surfaces 35 of housing 26. Insulator film 36 is bonded to one surface of bracket 33, and conductor strips 37 and 38 may be encapsulated in another insulator strip 39 in such a manner that contacts 40 and 41 protrude outwardly from the film. Preferably bracket 33 and lip 34 have a thickness of about 0.020 inch, conductors 37 and 38 have a thickness of about 0.011 inch, and films 36 and 39 each have a thickness of about 0.003 inch. Hence, the total thickness of the depending portion of appliance 25 is about 0.037 inch.
To connect an appliance, such as the outlet illustrated in FIGS. 4 through 8 to tape 10, tab insert 19 is removed from the position illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3, and lip 34 of connector 25, together with the insulator and conductors attached thereto is inserted into the region left by the removed tab.- Body 26 of the electrical connector is pushed downwardly until the upper portion of tape contacts the uppermost portion of the inside of the lip. When in this position, contacts 40 and 41 of the appliance are positioned to make electrical con tact with conductor strips 14 and 15, respectively, of tape 10. Thereafter, electrical equipment may be attached to connector 25 by means of an ordinary wall plug to deliver electrical power to such equipment. Since the thickness of the depending contact portion of connector 25 is about three times thicker than the space left by the removal of tab 19, the contact portion is wedged between conductors l4 and and insulator strip 11 to assure proper electrical contact.
It is to be understood that appliance may be other suitable types of electrical devices which are ordinarily permanently attached into an electrical power system of a structure. For example, and as shown in FIG. 9, attachment 26 may be a suitable switch 50 attached to tape 10a with the same type of contacts as illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7. Switch 50 is capable of making and breaking electrical connection from a power source 51 to an electrical device 52. A tee splice 53 may be inserted between tapes 10, 10a and 10b to make connection between 54 and 55 which connected to conductors l5 and 15' oftapel0,10'.
Although the present invention has been described in connection with conductor strips being attached to a wall surface, it is to be understood that tape 10 may be attached to other objects, such as desks, chairs and tables. Furthermore, it is to be understood that the conductor strips in accordance with the present invention may be utilized for carrying electrical communications or signals and the use of the conductor strips is not limited to conduction of electrical power or to two conductor tapes as described herein. Furthermore, the steel strip 17 may be connected to electrical ground and serve as a source ofground ifdesired.
The small thickness (about 0.008 inches) of the conductorbearing tape in accordance with the present invention makes the tape particularly inconspicuous when used on a wall surface or other device. Hence, a tape according to this invention may be used on a wall surface which may later be painted to hide the tape or render it inconspicuous.
