Abstract

A structural component includes a composite laminate built up of a plurality of layers of carbon fibers, wherein the layers of carbon fibers are oriented in different directions, wherein the carbon fibers are surrounded by a conductive polymer resin, wherein the carbon fibers of at least one of the layers comprise an electrically insulating coating, and wherein at least one of the coated carbon fibers extend through its respective layer to form an electrical connection between ends of the layer spaced apart from one another.
