Abstract
A method for forming an electrical connection in a pipe for transporting a fluid. The pipe comprises an internal hollow tube and a heating layer comprising first fibers made of carbon. There are performed a groove-formation step in which a groove is formed in the heating layer, an interface-preparation step in which a junction layer is placed on the heating layer of the groove, and a placement step in which a connection strip comprising second fibers formed of a second electrically conducting material is wound on the junction layer.
