Abstract:
The invention relates to a method serving to bond a lighting device, wherein the lighting device has a circuit board which is covered by a sealing compound layer and can be separated at a separating point into two lighting device sections and each of the lighting device sections each has at least one electrical contact adjacent to the separating point; wherein the method comprises at least the following steps: removing of at least the sealing compound layer on both sides of the separating point beyond the adjacent contacts of the lighting device sections so that the contacts remain covered by a thinner, remaining sealing compound layer; separating the lighting device on the separating point; fastening a connection element at least on the remaining sealing compound layer of at least one of the lighting device sections, wherein the connection element has at least one contacting element, which contacts a respective contact covered by the remaining sealing compound layer after separation or breaking through the remaining sealing compound layer. The tool according to the invention is a pair of cutting pliers having a vertical double cutting edge and a horizontally movable cutting edge. The connection element has at least one contacting element for separating or breaking through a remaining sealing compound layer of the lighting device.
