PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an illumination module and an illumination apparatus mounted therewith in which illumination loads are connected in series to a power supply unit between the illumination modules electrically connected to each other and the general power supply unit is used for driving the illumination loads.SOLUTION: When terminals 13a-13c on the extension side of the illumination module 1 are connected with the other illumination module 2, such a closed circuit condition that the Vcc terminal 13a and the GND terminal 13c on the extension side are not connected to each other is established by turning off a switching element Q1. At this time, the other illumination module 2 is set in the closed circuit condition, and illumination loads EL1, EL2 of both modules 1, 2 are connected in series to each other. Thus, the illumination loads can be connected in series to the power supply unit between the plurality of illumination modules electrically connected to each other. |
