What's included:

Merci d'avance!

éclairage
Without knowing the specific form this 'light' takes this would be the safest bet. You might use the technical term 'luminaire' (in EN, a 'light (fitting)' — but to be honest, I think that would be out of palce in your document.
To avoid repetition, I'd just say « Éclairage : LED... »

Je dirais effectivement 'lumière', personnellement.

Tony M
: 'lumière' tends to be used in this way in informal, everyday language « Éteins la lumière quand tu pars » but I don't really believe it is quite appropriate for the register/context, where it refers to a physical luminaire (but that's too technical here!)

: Dans la mesure où Nous avons "Lighting: LED light ...", il est inutile ici de reprendre light : Éclairage : LED... La suite est une question de formulation.
