Foil tape gives a flat profile under floor coverings; cable handles the run back to the driver. The lug is what joins them, and a poor joint at that transition is a common cause of a loop failing its field strength measurement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHearing loop installations frequently use two conductor types.
