EN 60529

EN 60529 is an international standard that classifies the degree of protection electronic devices have against solids and liquids, known as the Ingress Protection (IP) rating. It uses a code, like IP65, where the first number indicates the level of protection against dust and particles, and the second number shows protection against water ingress. Higher numbers mean better protection. This standard helps consumers and professionals understand how well a device is sealed and suitable for various environments, ensuring reliability and safety in different conditions.
