A lighting module may include at least one light source, and an identification element that identifies the supply current required by the light source, wherein the identification element includes a first terminal and a second terminal for connection to an electronic converter. In particular, the identification element includes at least one shunt regulator configured for limiting the voltage across the first terminal and the second terminal to a maximum threshold voltage, wherein the maximum threshold voltage identifies the supply current required by the light source.
