Lighting for buildings

[Tigger]

Does anybody know a source of ultra-miniature plugs and sockets which can be used for lighting schemes?  Something like a two-pole version of a miniature in-line din connector would be useful but it has to be small enough to be inconspicuous inside a building.

Squires do some small connectors for PCB boards, they come in strips and are not that robust, but fine if you only want to take them apart occasionally.  I can give the reference number if you have a catalogue (provided I remember to look back here!)

Many thanks and yes please - I have a 2008 catalogue.

Might even be useful for a 5-volt bus-line for rolling stock lighting as well.

It's in the 2007 electrical catalogue page 480 "PIN strips and sockets" ref # 561-000 and 561-010.  They are about the smallest connectors you can get.  If you need the measurements Chris has some and I can get him to hunt them out.

[Tigger]

Er - yes, many thanks and yes please, probably in that order!

I'm on the case, or will be after sailing tomorrow morning.

Has anyone tried the Hornby 'Skaledale' Lighting? looks good and very neat.
