Portuguese term or phrase: bloco de iluminação
From the website of a lighting company, about their products and services:

"Revitalização de luminárias históricas convertendo o bloco de iluminação para tecnologia LED, mantendo integral o design exterior da luminária."

They retrofit old-style public lighting luminaires by leaving the outside intact and replacing the inside (bloco de iluminação) with LED technology.

Thanks in advance for your help.

lighting block


Explanation:
Penso que o mais correto seria dizer "lighting block". Veja exemplo abaixo.

Example sentence(s):
  • The ambient lighting block would glow with light level 15, but otherwise look like an ordinary block.
