a communications line; and
a power line not powering the at least one light source; and
first aluminum alloy extrusions having a vertical mounting portion and a lower portion extending away from the surface; and
second aluminum alloy extrusions extending from the first aluminum alloy extrusions and having a vertical distal portion.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:
the surface is a wall; and
the passageway is covered by bent sheetmetal plates.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:
the at least one light source comprises a plurality of elongate fluorescent light bulbs or a plurality of LED strips.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:
at least one power line coupled to power the at least one light source.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:
the passageway contains said power line as a non-low voltage power line.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:
the passageway passes at least one of:
the fluid line;
the optical fiber; and
the communications line.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:
the passageway is covered by bent sheetmetal plates screwed to at least one of the first extrusions and second extrusions.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein:
the bent sheetmetal plates have first edge portions screwed to one of the first extrusions and second extrusions and second edge portions captured by one of the first extrusions and second extrusions.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the at least one light source each comprise:
a holding element, comprising:
at least one metal support; and
at least one receptacle mounted to the support; and
at least one ballast.
10. The apparatus of claim 1 being a cove lighting fixture.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 having lower wallboard along a bottom and forward wallboard along a front.
12. A cove lighting fixture mounted to a wall surface of a building and comprising:
at least one light source; and
a passageway passing at least one of:
a fluid line;
an optical fiber;
a communications line; and
a power line not powering the at least one light source.
13. The cove lighting fixture of claim 12 having lower wallboard along a bottom and forward wallboard along a front.
14. The cove lighting fixture of claim 12 wherein:
the passageway is covered by bent sheetmetal plates.
15. The cove lighting fixture of claim 14 wherein:
the bent sheetmetal plates are screwed to at least one of the first extrusions and second extrusions.
16. The cove lighting fixture of claim 12 further comprising:
first aluminum alloy extrusions having a vertical mounting portion and a lower portion extending away from the surface; and
second aluminum alloy extrusions extending from the first aluminum alloy extrusions.
17. The cove lighting fixture of claim 16 wherein:
the passageway is covered by bent sheetmetal plates screwed to at least one of the first extrusions and second extrusions.
18. The cove lighting fixture of claim 17 wherein:
the at least one light source comprises a plurality of elongate fluorescent light bulbs or a plurality of LED strips.
19. The cove lighting fixture of claim 12 wherein:
the at least one light source comprises a plurality of elongate fluorescent light bulbs or a plurality of LED strips.
20. The cove lighting fixture of claim 12 wherein:
the cove lighting fixture is upwardly open so that emitted light escapes generally upward to directly light the wall and a ceiling above.
