What is Ingress Protection (IP) Testing?
Ingress Protection (IP) Testing is a standardized evaluation process designed to assess the effectiveness of enclosures or casings in preventing the penetration of foreign particles (such as dust) and moisture (water) into electronic or mechanical devices. This testing is essential for products that are used in diverse environments, ranging from consumer electronics to industrial machinery, where exposure to harsh conditions can pose a threat to their performance and longevity.
