How to make a string of lights

Hi, I’m looking at making a string of lights similar to the one attached. I’m sure I can set up a switch system in Blueprint, but I was wondering if there were suggestions as to how to model it, then link the lights together in the most efficient way. I’m sure I have the right idea, but I want to make sure it doesn’t wear the engine down.

Sorry if its a dumb question, I’m new to this. Thank you!

Look into Spline Component in blueprints and it’s examples in Content Examples project.
