What does IP Rating mean?

IP Rating means Ingress Protection Rating (Also known as International Protection Marking) which represents a code that the manufacturer is supposed to specify so that the client knows if the product is protected against intrusions of solid-state particles or liquid particles. The numeric rating helps people take better care of the products they buy and to know how to store them in proper conditions. Most electronics manufacturers specify complicated details related to their products, but an IP Rating would be much easier to understand if people are informed about it. The IP code is a transparent tool that can help anyone buy products of better quality, without being misled by jargon and unclear specifications.




Ingress Protection is a standard rating recognized worldwide that anyone can use, regardless of their location. These electrotechnology standards are created to let people know what capabilities the product's casing has, from water to solid object protection. The code looks like this: the short version of Ingress Protection, which is IP, followed by two digits or the letter X. The first digit represents the resistance of the object against solid objects, while the second represents the protection offered against liquids. The letter X signifies that the product was not tested for the respective category (either solids or liquids).
