Abstract
In accordance with this invention a porcelain coated metal board is provided which has flat surfaces and further has electrical connections between the face and reverse surfaces of the board.

Claims1
A porcelain coated metal board of a given thickness comprised of, in combination, a metal core having defined therein an aperture of a predetermined cross-sectional size, a connector having a length sufficient to extend through at least the entire thickness of said board and having a cross-sectional size less than said predetermined cross-sectional size of the aperture, a glass sealing member and first and second porcelain layers, said metal core being positioned between said porcelain layers, said connector being positioned within said aperture in a spaced apart relationship from the edges of the aperture and being oriented so as to extend through the entire thickness of said board, said glass sealing member being formed in the aperture between the connector and the edges of the aperture thereby holding said connector in said position relative to the metal core and said first and second layers of porcelain being formed about said connector in a flat configuration.
