Electrical system with hook-and-loop busbars

A system of reconfigurable flexible circuit modules, comprising:

• a plurality of the circuit modules, comprising:
• a fabric member comprising a plurality of fibers having non-conductive elements, and conductive elements oriented through the plane of the fabric, each conductive element comprising a first fiber element strand and a first unterminated end opposite the first fiber element strand, and a second fiber element strand having second unterminated end opposite the second fiber element strand;
• the fabric member further comprising a first side with the first fiber element strands extending therefrom and a second side with second fiber element strands extending therefrom;
• and
• a first hook-and-loop busbar conductively connected to the first fiber element strands and a second hook-and-loop busbar conductively connected to the second fiber element strands;
• the plurality of flexible circuit modules connected in series via one of the hook-and-loop busbars in each of the plurality of flexible circuit modules, wherein the first hook-and-loop busbar are removably connected to the first fiber element strands and a second hook-and-loop busbar removably connected to the second fiber element strands.

A method of configuring and reconfiguring a flexible circuit module, comprising:

• forming a flexible circuit module, the flexible circuit module, comprising:
• providing a fabric member comprising a plurality of fibers having non-conductive elements, and conductive elements oriented through the plane of the fabric, each conductive element comprising a first fiber element strand and a first unterminated end opposite the first fiber element strand, and a second fiber element strand having second unterminated end opposite the second fiber element strand;
• the fabric member further comprising a first side with the first fiber element strands extending therefrom and a second side with second fiber element strands extending therefrom;
• and
• wherein the step of connecting a first hook-and-loop busbar conductively to the first fiber element strands and a second hook-and-loop busbar conductively to the second fiber element strands.
