Can EV charging stations withstand rain & dust?

As electric vehicles (EVs) surge in popularity, the demand for reliable, weather-resistant charging infrastructure grows. But how do you ensure your EV charging stations can withstand rain, dust, and even extreme weather? The answer lies in IP (Ingress Protection) ratings, the global standard for waterproof and dustproof performance.

Are EV chargers IP rated?
