What is the IP waterproof and dustproof rating? What's the difference?

April 27, 2024
Waterproof

The IP (Ingress Protection) protection level system was drafted by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) to classify electrical appliances according to their dust-proof and moisture-proof characteristics. The IP protection level is composed of two numbers. The first number indicates the level of protection against dust and intrusion of foreign objects by the electrical appliance (the foreign objects referred to here include tools, human fingers, etc. are not allowed to come into contact with the live parts of the electrical appliance. (to avoid electric shock), the second number indicates the degree of sealing of the appliance against moisture and water immersion. The larger the number, the higher the protection level.




Level Protection rangeexplanation

0

No protectionNo special protection against water or moisture
1

Prevent water droplets from immersing

Vertically falling water droplets (such as condensation) will not cause damage to electrical appliances

2

When tilted at 15 degrees, it can still prevent water droplets from infiltratingWhen the appliance is tilted from vertical to 15 degrees, dripping water will not cause damage to the appliance
3
Prevent spray water from infiltrating
Prevent rain or water sprayed from a direction with an angle less than 60 degrees from the vertical from intruding into the electrical appliance and causing damage.
4Protect against splashing waterPrevent water splashing from all directions from intruding into electrical appliances and causing damage.
5Protect against intrusion from jet waterProtection against low-pressure water spray lasting at least 3 minutes
6Prevent large waves from immersingProtection against heavy water spray lasting at least 3 minutes
7Prevent water from immersing during immersionResistant to immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes
8Prevent water infiltration during sinkingResistant to the effects of continuous immersion in water with a depth of more than 1 meter. The exact conditions are specified by the manufacturer for each device.
