Abstract:
A master lighting fixture and a satellite lighting fixture can each include an LED board including multiple LEDs that can emit visible light. A power supply and a LED regulator can be connected to the LED board in the master lighting fixture to provide power to operate the LED board. The LED board in the master lighting fixture can be connected to the LED board in the satellite lighting fixture to form a circuit to allow the power provided by the LED driver to be transmitted to the LED board in the satellite lighting fixture. A defect in the LED board in the master lighting fixture or the satellite lighting fixture can open the circuit, which can prevent power from being transmitted through the LED boards to enhance the performance of LEDs in the LED boards or reduce a risk of damage that can be caused by the LED boards.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for powering a plurality of LED boards, wherein the plurality of LED boards includes a first LED board and a second LED board of a master lighting fixture, a third LED board and a fourth LED board of a first external circuit, and a fifth LED board and a sixth LED board of a second external circuit, comprising:\n powering an LED driver of the master lighting fixture, wherein the LED driver has a first output and a second output; and powering the first LED board, the second LED board, the third LED board, the fourth LED board, the fifth LED board and the sixth LED board using the LED driver, wherein:\n the first output of the LED driver is connected to a first power connection point of the first LED board, \n a second power connection point of the first LED board is connected to a first power connection point of the third LED board, \n a second power connection point of the third LED board is connected to a first connection point of the first external circuit, \n a second connection point of the first external circuit is connected to a first power connection point of the fourth LED board, \n a second power connection point of the fourth LED board is connected to a first power connection point of the fifth LED board, \n a second power connection point of the fifth LED board is connected to a first connection point of the second external circuit, \n a second connection point of the second external circuit is connected to a first power connection point of the sixth LED board, \n a second power connection point of the sixth LED board is connected to a first power connection point of the second LED board, and \n a second power connection point of the second LED board is connected to the second output of the LED driver.
