IP Rated Tablet PCs
IP rating (aka, International Protection or Ingress Protection) is an engineering standard that is often applied to rugged Tablet PCs. The IP ratings tell you how protected a rugged Tablet PC is against dust and water.
IP rating is represented by a 2 digit code. For example, most rugged Tablet PCs are rated IP54 or above. For the first number in the code, in this case 5 tells you how much resistance the device has against solids like dust and dirt. The second number, in this case 4 tells you how protected it is against water.
The following table details the IP rating codes. IP rated Tablet PCs are listed below.
| First Number | Protection against Solids (Dust, Dirt etc) | Second Number | Protection against Liquids (Water penetration) |
| 0 | No protection | 0 | No protection |
| 1 | Protection against entry of objects greater than 50 mm | 1 | Protection against water spray vertically (directly onto screen) |
| 2 | Protection against entry of objects greater than 12 mm | 2 | Protection against water spray from 15 degrees from its normal position |
| 3 | Protection against entry of objects greater than 2.5 mm | 3 | Protection from entry of water spray from 60 degrees from vertical |
| 4 | Protection against entry of objects greater than 1.0 mm | 4 | Protection from entry of water splashes or spray from all directions |
| 5 | Protected against entry, limited ingress detected but not enough to interfere with operation | 5 | Protection from a low pressure jet of water from all directions |
| 6 | Complete protection against entry of dust | 6 | Protection against heavy seas or a strong jet of water from all directions |
