In electrical engineering, IP protection classes use two numbers to define protection against dust (1st number) and moisture (2nd number). For example, IP 45 means that there is protection against dust > 1 mm and water jets. In general, the higher the number, the higher the protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A list of all types of protection can be found in the following list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t

CEE plug connections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CEE plug connections on caravans or motorhomes usually correspond to protection class IP44. Only versions with a Renk \/ bayonet lock meet IP67.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question of whether such a CEE plug connection remains tight even in heavy rain can be clearly answered with yes from the table above: IP44 is tight with regard to \u201csplash water from all directions\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to make sure that the plug is fully inserted and the plug flap is locked into place. It is also helpful to secure the cover flap located above the plug connection with a strong \u201ccanning rubber\u201d (or similar) over the plug against being hit by gusts of wind.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
