    The document summarizes the IP protection code system. The first digit refers to protection against contact with moving parts and intrusion of solid objects. It ranges from no protection to dust tight protection. The second digit refers to moisture protection, ranging from no protection to protection against continuous submersion. Special symbols represent levels of protection in the IP code classification.

    Degrees of Protection - First Digit The first digit of the IP code indicates the degree that persons are

    protected against contact


    with moving parts (other than smooth rotating shafts, etc.) and the degree that equipment is protected against solid foreign bodies intruding into an enclosure.

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6

    No special protection Protection from a large part of the body such as a hand (but no protection from deliberate access); from solid objects greater than 50mm in diameter. Protection against fingers or other object not greater than 80mm in length and 12mm in diameter. Protection from entry by tools, wires, etc., with a diameter of thickness greater than 1.0mm. Protection from entry by solid objects with a diameter or thickness greater than 1.0mm Protection from the amount of dust that would interfere with the operation of the equipment. Dust tight.

    Degrees of Protection - Second Digit


    The second digit indicates the degree of protection of the equipment inside the enclosure against the harmful entry of various forms of moisture (e.g. dripping, spraying, submersion, etc.)

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

    No special protection Protection from dripping water. Protection from vertically dripping water. Protection from sprayed water. Protection from splashed water. Protection from water projected from a nozzle Protection against heavy seas, or powerful jets of water. Protection against immersion. Protection against complete, continuous submersion in water.

    Submersion depth and time must be specified by the end-user. The requirement must be more onerous than IP67

    The IP Code Symbols


    The chart at the right illustrates the use of special symbols in the IP classification system. In the "1st digit" column, not the grid-like symbols net to numbers 5 and 6. In the "2nd digit" column numbers 3-8 are symbolised by teardrop shaped symbols, sometimes enclosed in a box or a triangle, sometimes unenclosed (#7-8). These symbols can be placed on equipment to illustrate the IP protection provided.
