Abstract
Various implementations include a method of connecting wire to conductive fabric. The method includes (1) providing a conductive fabric having a main portion and a protrusion extending along a protrusion central axis from the main portion, the protrusion having a distal edge spaced apart from the main portion along the central axis and side edges that extend between the main portion and the distal edge; (2) placing a wire along at least a portion of the protrusion, the wire having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; (3) folding the distal edge of the protrusion over the wire one or more times to form a folded portion of the protrusion; and (4) after folding the distal edge, securing the folded portion of the protrusion with a securing device.

A method of connecting wire to conductive fabric, the method comprising:
- providing a conductive fabric having a main portion and a protrusion extending from the main portion and at least partially along a protrusion central axis, the protrusion having a distal edge spaced apart from the main portion and side edges that extend between the main portion and the distal edge;
- placing a wire along at least a portion of the protrusion, the wire having a first end and a second end opposite the first end;
- folding the distal edge of the protrusion one or more times to form a folded portion of the protrusion such that the protrusion is folded over the wire;
- and
- after folding the distal edge, securing the folded portion of the protrusion with a securing device.
