Abstract
An apparatus is provided comprising a chassis of a sheet of an electrically conductive material having a substantially non-conductive coating. An exposed portion of the chassis can be deformed to provide at least one protrusion such that the non-conductive coating on the at least one protrusion is thinner than a portion of the sheet spaced apart from the at least one protrusion to provide a conductivity path through the sheet.
