Although that's very thin, if the geometry allows a hex mesh of 3D geometry it may still produce a good through thickness solution, even if the aspect ratio is huge.  There isn't an Ansys shell element with through thickness electrical properties.  If you didn't need the Seebeck/Peltier effect, electric contact could have been used.
