LED Driver compatability

Hi guys.   I hope this isn't too stupid a question.   I have a customer who has supplied some under kitchen LED cupboard lights and a driver that comes with a socket to plug in a few individual lights.  The problem is the little plugs on the lights don't fit in the sockets so presumably somebody has sent or ordered the wrong driver or lights.  The Driver is rated at 15W.  Is there likely to be a problem if i just cut off the plugs and socket and hard wire them or is there likely to be a compatibility problem.  So i guess my question is are the drivers standard and any LED fitting will work so long as the wattage isn't exceeded.

Cheers.

  • I am with Zoom. It's a new install with customer supplied equipment that is incompatible. If something goes wrong it is going to be your fault. Tell them to send it back or make very clear that if you try to make it work it is not your problem if it doesn't. While you can put an alternative driver in do you know if the LEDs need constant current or constant voltage and are they dimmable?

    Changing a halogen driver is child's play by comparison.
