A low-pressure gas discharge lamp comprising a discharge vessel and at least two, spatially separated, capacitive induction structures, the vessel having a relatively small diameter of preferably 5 mm or less and comprising cylindrically shaped tubular induction structures of a dielectric material. An external induction plate of the capacitive induction structure acts as an electric contact and is shaped as a bush and is made from electrically conducting, ductile metallic material. The bush is provided on and is in direct contact with the dielectric material of the cylindrically shaped tubular induction structure. It is ensured that the connection thus formed is gastight and has a permanent compression stress, for example, a shrink connection.
