2e0dtoeric Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 This question keeps cropping up, and the answer seems to be - with great difficulty!I don't have any myself (plugs, that is!) so cannot give a definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissaf Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Me and my drawings to the rescue again..Once you know, terminating a Skaledale plug is simplicity itself, you don't even need a screwdriver. The wires are held in place by the push fit pins.....see drawing below:./media/tinymce_upload/729869ced8e72037adbf15823595db70.jpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissaf Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Although I did give the answer in the form of my drawing above in last post. I have to ask this rhetorical question. Why are you bothering with this Skaledale lighting system at all. They're based on out of date incandescent bulb technology, thus they run hot, they consume a lot of current, potentially requiring a large current capacity (thus expensive) power supply. You can do SO much more with modern LED based lighting products..OK, my personal view......anti-Skaledale Lighting rant over..PS - I do like the Skaledale resin building products though.
