The classification system for the sealing effectiveness of the enclosure of electrical and electronic equipment againts the ingress into the equipment of foreign
bodies e.g. dust, moisture, tools, fingers etc. uses the letters IP (ingress protection) followed by two or three digits. An X is used in place of a digit if there is only
one classification e.g. IPX4 (which only addresses resistance to moisture). The IP rating is particularly important when choosing an outdoor camera or webcam.

one classification e.g. IPX4 (which only addresses resistance to moisture). The IP rating is particularly important when choosing an outdoor camera or webcam.
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.
