How this is calculated
The tool answers two questions: what an IP code means, and which code a location needs.
To decode, it reads the code the way the IP code standard lays it out. After the letters IP come two characteristic numerals. The first, 0 to 6, covers solid objects and access to hazardous parts: the size of object kept out, and the part of a person kept off, from the back of a hand to a wire. The second, 0 to 8, covers water, from dripping to continuous immersion. An X stands for a numeral that is not stated. An optional additional letter, A to D, marks access protection better than the first numeral gives. Optional supplementary letters, H, M, S and W, add information for a product standard. A dual code such as IPX5/IPX7 meets both of its parts. Up to 6, a second numeral also meets every lower one, but a 7 or 8 alone is for immersion and does not meet water jets.
To select, the tool reads the least code the wiring rules name for the location, outside the zones around baths, showers, pools and spas. It says whether the clause is a requirement, a NOTE or an informative recommendation. With a device's code, it compares element by element: each numeral at or above the one required, and an access letter met by the letter or by the first numeral.

|---|---|---|
| Reading the code | AS 60529 Cl 4.1 | The numerals and letters, and X |
| Objects and access | AS 60529 Tables 1 and 2 | What the first numeral keeps out |
| Water | AS 60529 Table 3 and Cl 6 | What the second numeral resists, and dual codes |
| Access letter | AS 60529 Table 4 | What the additional letter keeps off |
| Enclosures | Cl 1.5.4.4 | The least code around live parts |
| Outdoor accessories | Cl 4.1.3 | The code outside the eave area |
| Switchboards | Cl 2.10.2.5 | Hosing, sprinklers and exits |
| Saunas and hosed areas | Cl 6.5.4.1 and Cl 6.7.4.1 | The code in the room or zone |
| Outdoor EV point | App P | The recommended code |
Worked examples
- IP65. Dust-tight, with no access even by a wire, and protected against water jets from any direction.
- IPX4B. No object numeral is stated. The letter B keeps a finger off, so access is by a finger at worst, and the code resists splashing water from any direction.
- An IP44 power point outside the eave. IP44 meets IP33, the code Cl 4.1.3 sets outside the area an eave protects.
- An IP67 light in a dairy hosed at high pressure. IP67 is below IPX6: a 7 alone is for immersion, not jets.
- A sauna light marked IPX4. IPX4 is below IP24 or IPX4B: the sauna also needs the finger kept off.
Limits
The tool reads AS 60529-2004, which stops the second numeral at 8; a 9 comes from a later IEC edition. It does not test anything: a code is what the maker has proven for the enclosure as tested. Drilling a drain hole, or a gland that does not seal, loses the code. For a bathroom, laundry, pool or spa, use the wet area zones tool: the code depends on the zone.

Mga tanong
Design aid ang resulta. I-verify ito laban sa kasalukuyang standard.
Ano ang ibig sabihin ng IP65?
Ang unang numeral na 6 ay nangangahulugang dust-tight, walang access sa hazardous parts kahit sa pamamagitan ng wire. Ang ikalawa na 5 ay nangangahulugang protektado laban sa water jets mula sa anumang direksyon. Parehong tinutukoy ng AS 60529.
Mas maganda ba ang IP67 kaysa IP65?
Hindi para sa jets. Ang 7 o 8 lamang ay para sa immersion, at hindi ito itinuturing ng AS 60529 na proteksyon laban sa water jets. Ang produktong para sa dalawa ay dual coded, gaya ng IP65/IP67.
Anong IP rating ang kailangan ng outdoor power point?
IP33 kung nasa labas ito ng lugar na pinoprotektahan ng eave o veranda, ayon sa AS/NZS 3000 Cl 4.1.3. Sa loob ng lugar na iyon, sa ilalim ng soffit at linya na 30 degree papunta sa pader, hindi kailangan ng IP marking ang accessory.
Ano ang ibig sabihin ng X at ng mga letra?
Ang X ay kumakatawan sa numerong hindi nakasaad. Ang karagdagang letra na A hanggang D ay nagmamarka ng access protection na mas mahusay kaysa sa ibinibigay ng unang numero. Ang supplementary letter na H, M, S o W ay nagdadagdag ng impormasyon para sa product standard.
Anong IP rating ang kailangan ko sa banyo?
Depende ito sa zone sa paligid ng bath, shower o basin. Gamitin ang wet area zones tool: hinahanap nito ang zone mula sa mga distansya at ibinibigay ang code na hinihingi ng zone na iyon.
