A contact area is provided on a carrier for connection to a mating contact area on a further carrier using an adhesive containing conductive particles. The contact area includes at least one recess forming a drain channel for the adhesive, extending from one edge of the contact area to an opposing edge and having a width being less than an average diameter of the particles. Alternatively, the contact area includes boreholes extending from a main surface to an opposing main surface and having diameters being approximately equal to or smaller than the average diameter of the particles in at least one direction and a cavity is formed in the carrier beneath the contact area. Alternatively, integral moldings forming a turf structure are provided on the contact area and distances between the moldings are equal to or smaller than the average diameter of the particles in at least one direction.
