Abstract

The invention relates to a method for making a deicing system on a panel (22) of a nacelle comprising an outer skin (24) having at least one hole and an inner skin (26), characterized in that it comprises the following steps: A. a grid of resistive elements is positioned on the outer skin (24) with respect to the hole(s) by a positioning means; B. the grid of resistive elements is applied by an application means to the location determined in step A to form the deicing system; C. a surface coating is applied to the resulting deicing system. The present invention also relates to an air inlet lip and to a nacelle comprising a deicing system produced by such method.
