The lighting device comprises at least one emitter () of white light () produced by an initial radiation () and a secondary radiation (), an electronic control circuit () to control the lighting, and a communication circuit (). The electronic circuit () controls power supply of the light emitter to emit a modulating light signal () of said initial radiation according to a communication signal (). Said modulating light signal is designed to be received by a light signal receiver () sensitive to the initial radiation (). A lighting installation comprises a power supply line, at least one lighting device () and at least one electrical apparatus () connected to a receiver () comprising a sensor () sensitive to the initial radiation ().
