Sign lighting is external or retrofitted lighting that makes an existing sign readable after dark: LED trough lights, swan-neck spotlights or wall washers, or LED modules replacing old lightbox tubes.

Consent for illuminated signs in Comber
Under the Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015, an illuminated fascia or projecting sign usually needs express consent from the council. Applications go in online via the NI Planning Portal, and the council will tell you its timescale and may set conditions on hours or light levels. PLG05 from the Institution of Lighting Professionals is the usual brightness benchmark, and flashing is generally out. Listed premises usually need listed building consent alongside. Once installed, the sign is connected to the mains by an electrician to BS 7671, with a certificate for you. We can prepare the drawings or submit the application.
