Is it possible to get IP certification for Ingress Protection tests?

No. The IP code is not policed and it is not a certification scheme. Manufacturers have the tests performed and if successful market their product as satisfying the associated IP rating. It is worth noting that satisfying the immersion test does not necessarily mean that the equipment will satisfy the “hose“ tests which are of a “lesser” level in the code.

It is also worth noting that the “wet” tests of the IP code indicate the equipments resistance to water not to water vapour equipments that are water tight are not necessarily gas tight. Water may accumulate in an enclosure through penetration in the gas phase and subsequent condensation.
