Modular connection module for a luminaire that reduces the required number of wire harnesses and conserves space

A connection module for a luminaire with a light module, comprising:

• a support;
• a surge protection circuitry arranged on the support;
• a first and second supply terminal for connection to a power supply, said first and second supply terminal being connected to the surge protection circuitry;
• a first and second load terminal for connection to a drive means of the light module, said first and second load terminal being connected to the surge protection circuitry;
• and
• at least a first and second control terminal,
• wherein a connection line for electrically connecting the first and second control terminals is arranged on the support,
• further comprising at least one of an equipotential terminal for connection to an equipotential part of the luminaire, an electrostatic discharge, ESD, protection circuitry arranged on the support and connected between the equipotential terminal and the second supply terminal, and a fuse arranged on the support and connected between the first supply terminal and the surge protection circuitry.
