Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of mounting a lighting appliance that can be easily attached to a building material, a mounting structure for a lighting appliance, a lighting appliance, and a method of constructing a building.
An electrical cable of a power supply unit disposed at a position that does not overlap a mounting hole on a rear side of a building material is passed through an inner opening of an annular mounting bracket, and a power supply side connector provided at an end portion of the electrical cable is positioned on a front side of the building material.
The power supply side connector is connected to a lighting appliance side connector fixed to an upper surface of a fitting adapter provided on a rear surface of a lighting appliance body on a side opposite to a light emitting surface.
The fitting adapter is fitted into the inner opening of the mounting bracket fitted into the mounting hole, and the upper surface of the fitting adapter is exposed to a space on a rear side of the building material.

Abstract: Object:
A building that enables lighting and air-conditioning to be effectively linked with each other is configured.
Resolution means:
An air-conditioning device including a connector receiving portion is installed on a ceiling, and the air-conditioning device and a plurality of lighting fixtures disposed around the air-conditioning device are electrically connected to each other with wirings provided for the number of the plurality of lighting fixtures installed around the air-conditioning device. Further, the air-conditioning device supplies power converted into a power voltage for the lighting fixtures to the plurality of electrically connected lighting fixtures. A wiring that passes through the rear of the ceiling is taken out of an opening of a ceiling member, and is connected to the lighting fixtures, so that the lighting fixtures are installed on the ceiling. An operation unit is operated to collectively control the air-conditioning device and the plurality of lighting fixtures disposed around the air-conditioning device.
