Abstract

A lighting device, comprising a power setting unit for setting an electrical power of a light source electrically coupled to the power setting unit, a programmable control unit connected to the power setting unit for controlling the power setting unit, a light control interface unit connected to the control unit for supplying a control signal, and a housing made of an electrically insulating material, which provides a power connection for connecting to an electrical power supply network. The housing encloses at least the power setting unit and the control unit so that they are protected. The control signal is predefinable via the light control interface from outside the housing. The control unit provides a programming interface having at least two contact surfaces for electrically contacting the programming interface and an isolation unit for the programming interface and the housing has a passage opening in a housing wall for each contact.
