English: The National Emergency Alarm Repeater (NEAR) is a civilian warning device in the United States. It is a 2-3" square box that is designed to plug into a home power outlet to receive a special signal sent over the electric power transmission lines. Research and testing for the NEAR program was developed in 1956 during the cold war to supplement the existing siren warning systems and radio broadcasts in the event of a nuclear attack. For unspecified reasons, the program went defunct and the devices were destroyed by their respective manufacturers.
National Emergency Alarm Repeater
Deutsch: Ein Warnsystem ist ein – meist öffentlich organisierter – Dienst zur Warnung vor Gefahren und zur Vorbeugung von Schäden. Oft dienen Warnsysteme auch zur besseren Hilfe nach Eintreten des schädlichen Ereignisses.
Latviešu: Brīdinājuma sistēma ir jebkura bioloģiska vai tehniska sistēma, kura brīdina vienu vai vairākus cilvēkus par iespējamo nelaimi. Brīdinājuma sistēmas mērķis ir informēt cilvēkus, lai tie pienācīgi spētu sagatavoties vai rīkoties attiecībā pret tuvojošos nelaimi.
Polski: System wczesnego ostrzegania (SWO) to system stworzony do informowania o niepożądanych zdarzeniach np. katastrofach naturalnych w czasie na tyle wczesnym, aby była możliwość działania zapobiegającego stratom np. ewakuacji ludzi i ich dobytku. Przykładem może być powstały już system ostrzegający przed tsunami.
