Wisconsin Security Guard Practice Exam

An improvised explosive device (IED) is typically made with a combination of different components. These components include a container (such as a backpack, clothing, or pipes), an explosive charge, and a fusing system (consisting of a detonator and an ignition system). It is important for all of these components to be present for the IED to function properly. Option A, B, and C are all individual components that are necessary for the IED to be classified as such, but it is the presence of all three components together that makes it a complete and functioning explosive device.
