I am trying to source some electrical contacts in a run of 6 folding
sliding doors in order to pass the electrical current for some smart
glass. I envisage that they may be a plunger type similar to some car
door contacts.

Hope someone can help me source them

I suspect you'll have better luck using wired hinges. These are commonly used
to connect electronic door locks but they can be used for purposes such as
yours. I work with several manufacturers of locksmith supplies and access
control systems. If you can give me the specs for the hinges on your doors
I'll suggest an appropriate model.
