Answers
Answer:
Answer:An IP rating is a way of showing how effective an item is at blocking out foreign bodies. The IP stands for Ingress Protection and the following numbers (i.e. IP67, IP56, etc) refer to the protection an item offers against the intrusion of the two categories of foreign bodies, i.e. solid (e.g. dust) and liquid (water).
Answer:
The IP C.ode, or Ingress Protection C.ode is defined in IEC standard 60529 which classifies and rates the degree of protection provided by mechanical casings and electrical enclosures against intrusion, dust, accidental contact, and water. It is published by the International Electrotechnical Commission.
An IP rating is, in summary, a two digit co.de. The first digit establishes the level of protection against intrusion of foreign bodies. The second the resistance against moisture intrusion. Together, this informs you of precise the level of protection that will be offered by the specific case or enclosure.
