    Abstract: A protective enclosure for an electrically-conductive element disposed along a component surface includes a base, a first side with an electrical connector, and a second side with an aperture for receiving a potting material. The base, the first side, and the second side at least partially define an internal void, and the internal void communicates with an external environment via the aperture.

    Abstract: One example of a heating element includes a first carbon nanotube (CNT) layer and a second CNT layer. At least a portion of the first CNT layer overlaps at least a portion of the second CNT layer, and the first CNT layer includes a first perforated region having a plurality of perforations. Another heating element includes a CNT sheet with a first perforated region having a plurality of perforations and a first perforation density and a second perforated region having a plurality of perforations and a second perforation density different from the first perforation density. A method of forming a heating element includes perforating a first CNT layer so that it includes a perforated region and stacking the first CNT layer with a second CNT layer such that at least a portion of the first CNT layer overlaps at least a portion of the second CNT layer.
