A luminaire (10) is disclosed with built-in surge protection. The luminaire comprises an electrically conductive structure including a carrier (11) carrying at least one active circuit component (15, 16) and a shielding element (13) at least partially covering the carrier inside a housing, a set of active conductors (17, 19) connected to the active circuit component for connecting the active circuit component to a mains supply including a neutral (N) and live (L) terminal, wherein one of said terminals is further connected to the shielding element by a connection (19) bypassing the at least one active circuit. The housing comprises a cover (21) over the electrically conductive structure, wherein the shielding element defines a clearance (25) between the electrically conductive structure and the cover, said clearance comprising a pinch point (27) between the shielding element and the cover.
