Which device provides audible signaling during emergencies to nearby personnel?

• A. Alarm Bell
• B. Audible Signaling Device
• C. Intercom
• D. Public Address

Answer: (B)

Audible signaling devices are meant to grab attention right where people are, delivering a quick, unmistakable warning during emergencies. That immediate local alert helps nearby personnel know something dangerous is happening and to respond without waiting for a message to be read or broadcast.

Intercoms are for talking to someone or a specific area, and public address systems are used to broadcast messages to a larger space, not just a local alert. An alarm bell is a type of audible signal, but the term “audible signaling device” describes the general equipment used to provide that rapid warning to people nearby. So, the device that best fits the description is the audible signaling device.
