of protection. The first digit (Foreign Bodies Protection) indicates
the extent of protection against particles entering the fixture and
the second digit (Water Protection) indicates the extent of
protection against water entering the fixture. An IP65 rated
lighting fixture is one, which has been designed and tested to
protect against the ingress of dust (6) and low-pressure water jets
from any direction (5).
