Provided is a connector (200; 700) for establishing an electrical connection with a conductive tape (100). The conductive tape comprises at least a first conducting layer (104) and an insulating layer (102). The connector comprises a first conductive region (204; 710) and a first connection region (712). The first connection region (712) is adapted to establish an electrical connection between the first conducting layer (104) of the conducting tape and the first conductive region (204; 110) when a perturbation is applied. The perturbation may be the application of pressure or temperature to the connector.
