Alarm systems come in two basic forms. Wireless & wired. A system that is "hardwired" is simply a wired system. A home that has been prewired for an alarm means that the hardwire has already been run, generally when the home is initially constructed.

You go to sleep at 6 pm and you set your alarm for 7amhow many hours of sleep do you have?

With a more modern LED digital clock, you get thirteen (13) hours; the display has that little dot on the side, so you can tell the difference between AM and PM when you're setting the time or the alarm.
