An elongate, three dimensional, conductive, micro lattice truss structure has parallel layers of resilient strands so that the truss structure maintains structural integrity during end-to-end compression which shortens its uncompressed length. The resiliency of the micro lattice truss structure enables the truss structure to return to substantially its uncompressed length when the compression is removed. The truss structure is adapted to provide a resilient electrical connection between two opposing conductive areas when the distal ends of the truss structure engage and are compressed between the two areas.
