An electroluminescent (EL) display includes a substrate, an EL pixel array with a light emitting diode (LED) on the substrate, a connector electrically coupled to the EL pixel array, an encapsulant on the substrate and surrounding the EL pixel array, an encapsulation substrate attached to the substrate, the EL pixel array enclosed between the encapsulation substrate and the substrate, and a conductive film electrically coupled to the connector, the conductive film being in communication either with the substrate or the encapsulation substrate.
