Example - IP 22 An electrical socket rated IP22 is protected against
solid objects over 12 mm - ex. insertion of fingers direct sprays of water up to 15o from the vertical - ex. damage or unsafety due to
vertically or nearly vertically dripping water

The IP Code, International Protection Marking, IEC standard 60529, sometimes interpreted as Ingress Protection Marking,[1] classifies and rates the degree of protection provided against intrusion (body parts such as hands and fingers), dust, accidental contact, and water by mechanical casings and electrical enclosures. It is published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).[2][3]
The standard aims to provide users more detailed information than vague marketing terms such as waterproof. The digits (characteristic numerals) indicate conformity with the conditions summarized in the tables below. Where there is no protection rating with regard to one of the criteria, the digit is replaced with the letter X.
For example, an electrical socket rated IP22 is protected against insertion of fingers and will not be damaged or become unsafe during a specified test in which it is exposed to vertically or nearly vertically dripping water. Another example is the Sony Xperia Z Ultra, one of the first cellular phones to be IP-rated; it is rated at IP58 and marketed as "dust resistant" and can be "immersed in 1.5 meters of freshwater for up to 30 minutes".[4] and the Fluke 27 II & 28 II
