Abstract
A lighting system comprising multiple linear lighting module building blocks is described. A lighting module is designed to emit light in a linear configuration, and multiple lighting modules are concatenated to emit light in a single linear configuration. A mechanical coupling system allows the lighting modules to be inserted into the linear configuration from a direction perpendicular to the linear configuration. The housing of the lighting modules is designed to allow the module to be clipped together in the linear configuration.
