Aczel has conjectured, [1, p. 448], the possibility of developing a net theory for structures more general than quasigroups. Steps in this direction have been taken by Havel who considers nets associated with multigroupoids [2], The work presented here introduces a generalization of 3-nets and their algebraization which is wide enough to encompass most algebraic structures based on a single binary operation.
