Cut&Connect for electrical installers
Cut&Connect
Cut. Connect. Done.
LED lighting at exactly the right length. Cut the profile, LED and cover together, then press in the end connector. A 3 m connection cable is included for connection to Tedson’s 24 V driver.
01 / From measurement to light
Three steps. One finished LED light.
Use your mitre saw with a blade suitable for aluminium. The profile, LED strip and cover arrive together, so you can cut them in one pass.
- 1
Measure and cut
Measure the installation space and allow for the end pieces in the finished length. Cut the preassembled pack to the correct length. The profile, LED and cover are cut together.
- 2
Fit the end pieces
Press in the power end connector and fit the closing end cap at the other end. The connector makes contact with the LED strip without soldering.
- 3
Connect and light up
Mount the light and connect the supplied connection cable on the driver’s 24 V side according to its wiring instructions. Choose DALI or phase dimming.
02 / Start with the application
Task lighting or ambient lighting?
Two clear starting points make it easy to choose the output and driver.
Kitchen · worktop lighting
Light where you work.
15 W/m for the worktop. One light or several separately supplied lights, with a maximum combined length of 4 m per driver.
4 m × 15 W/m = 60 W
Alcoves · ambient lighting
Light that sets the mood.
5 W/m for calm, comfortable lighting. Tedson’s pack limit is a maximum continuous length of 6 m for this combination.
6 m × 5 W/m = 30 W
Each separate LED light gets its own power end connector with a 3 m cable. For several lights, size the driver for their combined load. Divide larger projects into additional groups.
03 / Control the light
DALI or phase dimming. Your choice.
Tedson’s stocked drivers: 24 V DC constant voltage, always one channel. The same two output ratings for both control methods.
DALI
For installations with DALI control.
36 W75 WPhase dimming
For installations with a phase dimmer.

Do I need to solder the LED strip?
No. The Cut&Connect end connector makes contact when pressed in.
Can I cut at the length I need?
The preassembled Cut&Connect pack is designed for the profile, LED and cover to be cut together to the required length. Follow the assembly instructions for the selected model. This does not apply to an ordinary loose LED strip.
Which tools do I need?
A mitre saw with a blade suitable for aluminium, plus normal mounting and electrical connection tools. No soldering equipment is needed for the end connector.
Can several lights share a driver?
Yes, with a separate supply to each light and the correct combined load. For 15 W/m worktop lighting, the maximum is 4 m in total per 75 W driver. Each light gets its own 3 m cable.
What does Tedson need to know about my project?
Tell us the application, the length of each light, profile model, finish, light colour and whether the installation will use DALI or phase dimming. We help you choose the end pieces, fixings and drivers.
