Abstract

A floor panel illustratively for a transport vehicle. The floor panel includes a metal plate and at least one heating cable adapted to generate heat when electric current flows therethrough. A net is provided with a plurality of openings and the at least one heating cable is arranged between the net and the metal plate, such that the at least one heating cable is in contact with the metal plate. The floor panel also includes an insulative layer adapted to limit transmission of heat produced by the at least one heating cable and the net is arranged between the layer and the metal plate. The insulative layer is fixed to the metal plate by an adhesive, and the at least one heating cable is positioned or immersed in the adhesive, except for a surface portion of the at least one heating cable which is in contact with the metal plate.
