Built to Last – A&T Achieves IK10 Rating on Enclosures
We are proud to announce that during a recent IEC 61439-2 test A&T’s enclosure range achieved an IK10 rating, the highest level of impact resistance in accordance with IEC 62262 standard.
But what exactly is IK10?
IK ratings measure how well an enclosure can withstand mechanical impact. IK10 means our enclosures can take a 20-joule impact – that is the equivalent of a 5kg object hitting from 400mm. In short: they are built tough.
Why does this matter?
IK10 is essential for sectors where enclosures are exposed to risk of vandalism, accidental damage, or harsh operating environments. Our solutions are ideal for:
- Transport infrastructure (stations, signage, ticketing)
- Utilities (power distribution, water treatment, telecoms)
- Public spaces (charging points, EV infrastructure)
- Industrial and automation settings
With a focus on British engineering quality, our IK10-rated enclosures offer peace of mind where protection and compliance are key.
If IK10 is a requirement for your next project, come and speak to A&T – we are here to help.
