Method of making a net light

Abstract

A method of making a net light includes the initial step of providing a light set having (I) a common wire set extending in a first direction, the common wire set including an active wire and a return wire, and (ii) a plurality of series-connected light strings extending physically parallel to each other and in a second direction transverse to the first direction. Each light string includes a plurality of lamp sockets and a plurality of intermediate lengths of wire connecting the lamp sockets in series. A plug is disposed at one end of the common wire set and includes active and return wires. Each of the light strings, except the first and last light string, is disposed in relatively closely adjacent pairs of light strings, each such closely adjacent pair being relatively widely spaced from any other closely adjacent pair, the first light string, and the last light string. The next step includes (I) physically fastening intermediate lengths of each light string of a closely adjacent pair to corresponding intermediate lengths of an adjacent one light string of a different closely adjacent pair, (ii) physically fastening intermediate lengths of the first light string to corresponding intermediate lengths of the second light string, and (iii) physically fastening intermediate lengths of the last light string to corresponding intermediate lengths of the penultimate light string.
