The standard for a fire alarm horn in the USA is 75 dB at 10 feet for dwellings and approximately 1,000 times louder in areas with high ambient noise.
Use a sound pressure level meter. But don't forget to mention the distance when you write down the value in decibels. The more far away you are from the horn the lower is the measured level. A dB value without the distance is useless. For example, the UL standard for smoke alarms is 85 dB at 10 feet.
The standard unit for sound energy is the decibel (Db).

You don't. They measure quite different things, so there is no standard conversion. Ampere is a unit of electrical current. Decibel (dB) is a measure of signal gain.
75 dB
dB SPL is a comparison of a sound level to what was thought to be the threshold of hearing, although today it is known that the value was too high. dB HL is a measure of hearing loss - a comparison of a subjects hearing compared to a 'normal' standard. As they are measure different things a direct comparison is not possible. The differences between dB HL and dB SPL, arise from isophonic curves. There is no direct (linear) formula to convert this but a set of formulas. For different frequencies, different values should be added. For eg., at 1kHz you can state that 0dB HL is around 2dB SPL while at 250Hz, 0dB HL is 12 dB SPL. db HL = db Hearing Level db SPL = db Sound Pressure Level
NRR means Noise Reduction Ratio and 30 db (decibels) is about average. 30db hearing protection would be commonly used by shooters to reduce the sound of gun fire.

Db is a one-half step drop from a standard tuned D. Look up a chord diagram to show you. Typically it is (from small e sting to big E): 1 3 2 open open open
You must find a resistance value for 0 dB as reference. If 1 Ohm = 0 dB then 10 ohms = 20 dB and 100 ohms = 40 dB.

yes it = 1
