Lighting device and kit

Kit for use in a lighting device (1;

• 101), which has a rail profile (10;
• 10′) with a first area (11) and a second area (12) for coupling at least one lighting unit (2) and supplying it with electrical energy and/or a control signal, wherein the first and second areas (11, 12) are each equipped with an electrical conductor means (21, 22) arranged essentially along a longitudinal extension direction (L) of the rail profile (10;
• 10′) and are separated from each other by a web (13) of the rail profile (10;
• 10′), and wherein at least one channel (14;
• 114, 115, 116) is provided in the web (13), wherein the kit comprises a first and a second connector unit (30, 50;
• 130, 150) and the connector units (30, 50;
• 130, 150) are designed such that
• at least one of the connector units (30, 50;
• 130, 150) can be inserted into the first area (11) and can be electrically contacted with the electrical conductor means (21) of the first area (11);
• at least the other of the connector units (30, 50;
• 130, 150) can be inserted into the second area (22) and can be electrically contacted with the electrical conductor means (22) of the second area (12);
• the connector units (30, 50;
• 130, 150) can be electrically coupled to each other through at least one channel (14;
• 114, 115, 116) of the web (13) for the electrical coupling of the electrical conductor means (21, 22) of the first and second areas (11, 12);
• and
• wherein the first connector unit (30;
• 130) comprises at least one contact section (31, 32, 33;
• 131, 132, 133) which is configured such that for coupling with the second connector unit (50;
• 150), the at least one contact section (31, 32, 33;
• 131, 132, 133) of the first connector unit (30;
• 130) can electrically contact a contacting device (51, 52, 53;
• 151, 152, 153) of the second connector unit (50;
• 150) through the channel (14;
• 114, 115, 116).
