An electrical connector includes a male element and a female element configured to form a rivet for fastening the electrical connector to a piece of material; and a neck washer, which has a washer portion and a neck portion and which is configured to be placed between the male element and the female element of the rivet. The washer portion is configured to form an electrical connection area for an electrical conductor of the piece of textile and the neck portion is configured to electrically connect the washer portion to at least one of the male element and the female element. The electrical connector can be used independently of the position of the electrical conductor in relation to one or more layers of materials in the piece of material.

An electrically conductive yarn having a fiber yarn which includes textile fibers and electrically conductive fibers. The fiber yarn is twisted with a filament yarn which is electrically conductive at least at its surface. The electrically conductive yarn can be used in different products in order to, for instance, create areas for heat emission and conductors for current to and from such areas and other components.

A holding element is intended to be affixed to an active article of clothing at two spaced apart locations. It is provided with first electrical terminals for connection to an activation unit, which is to be secured to the article of clothing by the holding element, second electrical terminals for connection to a functional component of the active article of clothing and electrically conductive paths between the first and second terminals, the second electrical terminals being placed where the holding element is intended to be affixed to the article of clothing. The holding element is arranged to hold the activation unit between the holding element and the article of clothing between the two spaced apart locations and the holding element is flexible so that it shapes itself around the activation unit when the activation unit is introduced between the holding element and the article of clothing.
