a device to shut down an important power or other component in a dire emergency. I have heard this term applied to the emergency brake on a bus, and have never seen this device used. it could also apply to emergency shut-down devices at power plants, engine control rooms and the like where a sudden shut-down would indeed have dire consequences. In the power house service, the term (Scram) is often used instead of say panic button- ( scram that transformer- its leaking coolant- in other words shut it down pronto!) The Scram device on, say a transformer, puts on all the safety devices at once!
