The present invention provides a shell arrangement as well as an aircraft or spacecraft comprising such a shell arrangement. The shell arrangement comprises a first lightning conductor layer for conducting lightning energy and a fibre composite layer supporting the first lightning conductor layer. Furthermore, the shell arrangement comprises a first electrical connection for connecting a first electrical component with the first lightning conductor layer. The advantage resulting according to the invention is that the lightning conductor layer fulfils a double function: on the one hand it serves to conduct lightning energy and on the other hand it forms a portion of a circuit for operating the first electrical component. For this reason, the need for electrical wiring in the airplane is reduced, in turn resulting in a weight reduction for the aircraft or spacecraft.
