The chart meticulously breaks down the two-digit IP code system, explaining how the first digit represents protection against solid objects like dust, hands, or tools, and the second digit identifies protection against various liquids, ranging from vertically falling water drops to high-pressure immersion. By utilizing this reference, engineers, installers, and end-users can verify the suitability of equipment for specific environmental conditions, ensuring optimal durability, safety, and operational reliability. The guide serves as a critical professional resource for maintaining equipment integrity and preventing malfunctions caused by environmental ingress.",{"@graph":63,"@context":119},[64,80,102],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":51,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/general/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/ip-rating-chart-understanding-protection-standards/565053/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/ip-rating-chart-understanding-protection-standards/565053.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"GGG","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-24","2026-10-12",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":101},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":103,"mainEntity":104},"FAQPage",[105,111,115],{"name":106,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":108},"What does an IP rating measure?","Question",{"text":109,"@type":110},"IP ratings measure the level of protection an electrical enclosure or mechanical casing provides against dust, intrusion, accidental contact, and water ingress.","Answer",{"name":112,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":113},"How is an IP rating composed?",{"text":114,"@type":110},"An IP rating is determined by combining two digits: the first digit indicates protection against solid objects, while the second digit indicates protection against various liquid exposures.",{"name":116,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":117},"What is the difference between IP5 and IP6 for solids?",{"text":118,"@type":110},"IP5 is dust-protected with limited ingress permitted that does not interfere with operations, whereas IP6 is dust-tight with no ingress allowed.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":78,"og:type":121,"og:title":59,"og:site_name":91,"og:description":61},"article",{"robots":123,"canonical":78},"index,follow",{"doc_id":125,"site_id":56},565053,1792083958,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":128},{"doc_id":125,"user_id":129,"nickname":88,"user_avatar":130,"doc_module":9,"category_id":50,"category_name":51,"doc_title":59,"doc_description":61,"doc_content":131,"file_id":132,"file_url":133,"file_type":134,"file_size":135,"view_count":101,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":9,"is_downloadable":9,"audit_status":9,"page_count":9,"language":136,"language_code":57,"site_id":56,"html_lang":57,"table_of_contents":137,"faqs":138,"seo_title":139,"seo_description":61,"update_tm":140,"read_time":4},962093532725,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_276721f389ce27ea32af1340a28f341c","IP RATING CHART  \nIngress Protection (IP) Ratings gauges the protection of mechanical casings and electrical enclosures against intrusion, dust, accidental contact, and water.  \nIP Ratings are determined by combining one digit from each of the two columns below.  \nSOLIDS LIQUIDS  \n1  \n2  \n3  \n4  \n5  \nProtected against a solid object greater than 50mm, such as a hand.  \nProtected against a solid object greater than 12.5mm, such as a finger.  \nProtected against a solid object greater than 2. 5mm, such as a screwdriver.  \nProtected against a solid object greater than 1mm, such as a wire.  \nDust Protected.  \nLimited ingress of dust permitted.
