Slim wire needed for cluster pendant

[Oikos100]

Hi, I need some advice,
I'm creating a cluster pendant with about 8 cables and G9 bulbs. I've been told I don't need an earth as the shades won't be metal, but if I google 2 core flex everything I find is around 6mm diameter or more. Is there anything slimmer I can use, even if that means having a transformer?
I want the cables as thin as possible.
Any advice welcome
Thanks

if you are designing and building it, then you may have to look at singles instead of flex if required to go down a small tube etc.

p.s. it is not just the shades that you have to think about regarding if an earth is required or not.

if there is to be no earth, the entire fitting will have to be designed as a class 2 appliance.
is this for your own use or are you intending to sell it?

p.s. if you use a transformer to lower the voltage, the current will go up and the cable size may have to go up to cope with the extra current.

Do you mean the cable is 6mm csa or 6mm overall diameter?

Hi, thank you for your responses & sorry for the slow reply.
This is for my own use but obviously want it to be safe!
Do you know how something like this might have been constructed?:

@Matthewd29 - 6mm overall dia, I was hoping for less than 4mm

Thanks again for your help

Hi, for anyone else who stumbles across this thread, I sourced some ultra slim transparent cable, 2x 0.96mm from King's Chandeliers, I think it might be what I need. Thanks again for all your help.
