Summary
The IP rating system, created by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) under the international standard IEC 60529, is used to provide customers with detailed information about the level of protection a device offers against solid particles, liquid, dust, accidental contact, and water. IP53 rating indicates that the device is protected against dust and water spray from any direction, but not against immersion in water.

DSM&T offers a variety of products and services related to harsh environment connectors and wire harnessing. Their IP rating chart provides customers with the level of protection they need against solid objects, dust, accidental contact, and water in electrical enclosures. Customers can also find products to fit their needs by selecting the first and second digits of the IP rating.

Summary
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) created the IP code to provide customers with detailed information about their device beyond just waterproof and not waterproof. The IP code has two numbers, 0 - 6, which indicate the device's protection level against solid particles and liquid, and 0 - 9, which indicates the device's protection level against liquid. The IP rating alone does not tell much about the device's waterproof status, as the test performed in controlled laboratory conditions is often very different from what happens in the real world.

Summary
The IP code or ingress protection code indicates how well a device is protected against water and dust. It is defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) under the international standard IEC 60529 which classifies and provides a guideline to the degree of protection provided by mechanical casings and electrical enclosures against intrusion, dust, accidental contact, and water. The digit 0 is used where no protection is provided, and the letter X is replaced with the letter X when insufficient data has been gathered to assign a protection level.

Summary
IP and ATM ratings are two different ratings systems used to determine the level of protection a device offers against solids and liquids. IP ratings are a range of 1-6, while ATM ratings indicate how much static atmospheric pressure a device can deal with while in water. It is important to keep a device dry, even if it has a high IP rating, as it may not be completely waterproof.
