IP protection instruduction
The IP (PROTECTION INGRESS) protection level system was drafted by IEC (ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION INTERNATIONAL). Classification of electrical appliances in accordance with the characteristics 
of its dust and moisture. Things here refers to the tools, the fingers are not to contact live electrical internal parts, so as to avoid the electric shock. IP rating is composed of two numbers, the first digit represents the grade of appliances that prevent the dust or other objects from entering . The second digit represents the grade of the appliances that have moisture resistant, waterproof invasion of closeness ,.the larger number represents the  higher  level of protection.
IP(INGRESS PROTECTION)Protection degree and waterproof standards:
1)IEC(INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION):IEC 60529 
2)Eu standard :EN 60529
3)Chinese standard:GB 4208-2008.
NEMA protection instruction
NEMA protection degree(IP code include dustproof and waterproof only)is the  USA Electrical manufacturers' Association’sassessment standard of the protection degree of industrial control devices and systems’s shell . NEMA standard also include explosion proof,beside the dustproof and waterproof protection 
NEMA standard:NAMA 1 2 3R 3 12 and 13 4 and 4X
