A tamper switch is a security feature used in alarm systems or access control systems to detect if the device or equipment has been tampered with or removed from its designated location. When triggered, the tamper switch sends a signal to the control panel to alert of a possible breach or tampering attempt.

Even if the alarm has been de-activated (by entering the correct code) the anti-tamper circuit is still active so long as there is power to the system. Cutting the lead to the external sounder, or the mains lead doesn't stop it either - there is usually an internal sounder, and a back-up battery.
