Are your electrical devices well protected against the ingress of water, dust or other foreign objects? Do they still work when touched with the back of a hand, fingers or tools and wires? Let's test it - we will carry out the IP test for you.
The ingress protection testing or IP test (IP = International Protection or Ingress Protection) provides information on the degree to which an electronic device is protected against the ingress of foreign objects or whether it functions properly despite contact with the back of a hand, fingers, tools or wires.
There is an international classification system for the protection class within the IEC 60529 standard.
IP Codes are made up of the letters IP (International Protection) and two numbers. The first number of the code stands for the degree of protection against access to hazardous parts and against ingress of solid foreign objects. The second number stands for the degree of protection against liquids.
