Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method for promoting electrical conduction between metallic components and composite materials. A composite body is coated with an adhering layer comprising a conductive material, and a metallic component is electrically connected to the conductive material of the adhering layer, when the metallic component is coupled to the composite body. The adhering layer is deposited inside a hole in the composite body, and/or along an edge of the hole, and/or on at least a portion of a surface of the composite body. The composite body is a structure of an aircraft or other vehicle comprised of composite materials formed from carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs), the metallic component is a fastener or is positioned at an interface between the fastener and the composite body, and the electrical connection is made as part of a lightning protection system, an electromagnetic effects (EME) management system, or grounding system.
