Electrical DictionaryThe Standard Electrical Dictionary 💡

  • annunciator
    An apparatus for announcing a call from any place to another, as from a living-room to an office in a hotel, or for announcing the entering of any given room or window in a building protected by a burglar alarm.

    A usual system comprises for each annunciator an electro-magnet. Its armature is normally held away from its poles by a spring, and when in that position a latch connected to the armature holds a little shutter. When by a push-button or other device a current is sent through a circuit which includes the electro-magnet the armature is attracted, this releases the latch and the shutter drops. In dropping it displays a number, letter or inscription which indicates the locality of the push-button or other circuit-closing device. Often annunciators are connected in circuit with a bell.
