LED Tube lamp and a power supply module thereof
A light-emitting diode (LED) tube lamp and an electric leakage protection circuit are provided. The LED tube lamp. The LED tube lamp includes a leakage detecting module and a driving module comprising a Type A+B driving circuit. The leakage detecting module is connected with a power supply. The driving module is electrically connected with the leakage detecting module. The leakage detecting module detects a signal related to the output current of the power supply, and when the signal related to the output current of the power supply exceeds a reference signal, the leakage detecting module limits the current on a power loop connected to the power supply by periodically turning off a switch electrically connected to the power loop in series.
Lighting assembly
A modular lighting assembly uses LED banks as the light sources. The assembly allows the power supply and LED banks to be independently replaced. The assembly uses a power supply that is separated from the LED banks and electrically connected to the LED banks with a plug connector that may be unplugged and plugged back in to allow the power supply or LED bank to be independently and readily replaced. The assembly provides for easy replacement of the different components of the assembly. One feature that makes the components easier to replace is that the light modules and/or the power supply may be carried by the housing that is removable from the base mount that is secured to a mounting structure such as a wall or ceiling.

Streetlight retrofit to provide access for wireless and cellular networks
A system for upgrading and retrofitting existing streetlights. The system enables conventional streetlights using sodium vapor, and other conventional lighting technologies, to be upgraded to more energy efficient and long-lasting LED lighting. At the same time, cellular and wireless communications can be added to the streetlight to provide additional bandwidth over that provided by conventional cell towers. The system can offload bandwidth in otherwise overloaded areas, such as densely populated urban areas. The system can include mini- or micro-cellular routers, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth®, and other micro cellular and wireless technologies. The system can include a light fixture styled to look like existing conventional light fixtures and can be retrofitted to existing streetlight poles and mounts with little, or no, modification to the pole and wiring.

Luminaire system facilitating modular enhancement
A light fixture can be electrically connected to a module that can add certain functionality and/or alter the way the light fixture is controlled. A module base includes a module receiver configured to receive one of a plurality of modules. At least the module base is connected to input power. When a first module is coupled to the module base, the combination of the light fixture and module has a first range of functionality dictated at least in part by the functionality of the first module. When the first module is removed and replaced with a second module, the combination of the light fixture and the module has a second range of functionality dictated at least in part by the functionality of the second module.
