What is claimed is: 1. A refrigerating appliance, comprising: at least first and second walls positioned in substantially parallel vertical planes; a plurality of first protrusions arranged in the first wall in substantially parallel horizontal planes; a plurality of second protrusions arranged in the second wall in the parallel horizontal planes; at least one plate made of photoconductive material and adapted to be inserted between the first and second walls for selective placement in any one of the parallel horizontal planes; at least one electrically energizable light source mounted on a margin of the plate; first means mounted on the plate for energizing the light source; and second means mounted on the protrusions for selective electrically conductive connection with first means. 2. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the first means is an electrical secondary coil and the second means is an electrical primary coil. 3. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the first means is an electrical contact of a first predetermined configuration and the second means is an electrical contact of a second configuration complementing the first configuration. 4. The appliance of claim 3, wherein one of the first and second configurations is a pin and the other of the first and second configurations is a recess for receiving the pin. 5. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the first and second means are contact surfaces disposed coplanarly in surfaces of the plate and surfaces of the protrusions. 6. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the light source is mounted in a housing rigidly connected to the plate. 7. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the light source is mounted in a housing removably connected to the plate. 8. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the plate is provided with a light output surface formed by a recess in a lateral margin of the plate. 9. The appliance of claim 1, further comprising: a control element for inputting or selecting a name of an item to be placed on the plate; a control unit comprising a memory for storing a plurality of names of items and an evaluation circuit for comparing an inputted or selected name with a stored name; and means for energizing the light source in dependence of the comparison. 10. The appliance of claim 1, further comprising: means for preventing the formation of sparks as a result of electrically connecting the first and second means.
