Ingress Protection (IP) and what it means
‘The Code (or International Protection Rating, sometimes ako interrete as Ingress Protection Rating) consists ofthe
letersP followed by sw cits and an optional ler. As defined in international standard 60529, clasies he degrees of
protection provided against the intrusion of solid objects including body parts tke hands and fingers), dust. acidertal contact,
{and water in electrical enclosures, The standard aims to provide users more detalled information than vague marketing terms
such as waterproat
‘The cits (characteristic numerals indicate conformity withthe conditions summarized in the tables below, For example, an
lecical socket rated P22 is protected againstinserton of fingers and will nt be damaged ar become unsafe during a spected
test inwhieh tis exposed to vertically or nearly verally dipping water. P22 oF 2X ae typical minimum requirements forthe
