A system for lightning-protection of an aircraft skin panel that includes a nonconductive skin panel substrate and a series of spaced apart electrically conductive strips embedded in and extending along an outer surface of the nonconductive skin panel substrate. A series of electrically conductive fasteners extend through the nonconductive skin panel substrate to affix it to the airframe of the aircraft. The fasteners are arrayed along peripheral regions of the nonconductive skin panel substrate. Each of the electrically conductive strips is in electrical communication with the aircraft airframe through at least one fastener located proximate each end region of each strip.
