Abstract

The aim of the invention is to provide an illumination method and an illumination system which allow to use the advantages of the LED technology for resolving complicated illumination problems, such as the illumination of relief letters. The invention relates to a system which comprises a number of boards that are provided with light-emitting diodes, cables for interconnecting the boards and/or for connecting the boards to a voltage source and fixing elements for fixing the boards at a desired location. The system is provided with a series of advantages: said system can be retrofitted, can be used universally, can do with few different components, does not need high-voltage and can be easily assembled.
