Which of the following switches will sound a continuous audible alarm if activated?

  1. Emergency stop cover

  2. Main power switch

  3. Automatic reset switch

  4. Overload protection switch

The correct answer is: Emergency stop cover

The emergency stop cover is designed to immediately halt all operations in a system for safety reasons and is typically equipped with mechanisms that trigger an audible alarm when activated. This serves to alert personnel to a potentially hazardous situation, helping ensure that appropriate safety procedures are followed. The other options do not generally activate continuous alarms. The main power switch typically controls the overall electrical supply without providing an audible alert. An automatic reset switch usually resets systems without an alarm, while an overload protection switch is focused on trip settings to protect the circuit, often without a continuous alarm feature. Thus, the emergency stop cover is specifically meant to sound a continuous alarm to indicate a need for immediate attention and action.
