Ingress Protection

The document discusses ingress protection (IP) codes, which express the degree of protection provided by electrical equipment enclosures against solid objects like dust and liquids like water. The IP code consists of two numbers that indicate protection levels against ingress of solids and liquids, with higher numbers indicating greater protection. Common IP codes are described, such as IP20 providing finger touch protection but no water protection, and IP67 providing dust-tight protection and protection against immersion in water.
