IP (Ingress Protection) Testing (Up to IP 69)
Ingress protection (IP) testing reduces the risk of product failure in the field by assessing the degree of protection provided against mechanical intrusion, dust, accidental contact and water into casings and enclosures.
IP codes are widely used to indicate the degree of water-proof and dustproof properties of electric equipment
The IP codes defined in IEC 60529 classifies the degree of protection against the ingress of foreign material (including steel balls, copper wire, water, dirt and dust) into the enclosure of electrical and mechanical products.
