lighting fittings / fixtures

Explanation:
This is how I would say it

Just to clarify, I was giving two suggestions: "lighting fittings" and "lighting fixtures".

You can also say "light fittings" or "light fixtures" too.

"A light fixture, light fitting, or luminaire is an electrical device used to create artificial light and/or illumination, by use of an electric lamp."

According to Wikipedia:

"Light fixture is US usage; in British English it is called a light fitting. However, luminaire is the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) terminology for technical use."

Both sound fine to me (BE), but this may be the case. Who's your target audience?
