Abstract
A lighting system includes a linear luminaire having a length and a width, where the length is longer than the width. Further, the lighting system includes at least two rigid pendants that are configured to suspension mount the linear luminaire from a mounting surface. Each rigid pendant is coupled to the linear luminaire via a clevis such that a joint between the rigid pendants and the linear luminaire is a clevis swivel joint that allows the linear luminaire to swing along the length to meet a seismic requirement while preventing a tilting of the linear luminaire along the width.
