8.13 IP protection
Each part of a Simrad autopilot system has a two digits IP
protection code.
The IP rating is a method to classify the degree of protection
against solid objects, water ingress and impact afforded by

most European countries and is set out in a number of British
and European standards.
The first code number describes the protection against solid
objects, and the second number describes the protection against
liquids.
