   Using both ear muffs (whether passive or active) and earplugs simultaneously results in maximum protection, but the efficacy of such combined protection relative to preventing permanent ear damage is inconclusive, with evidence indicating that a combined noise reduction ratio (NRR) of only 36 dB (C-weighted) is the maximum possible using ear ...

   In some occasions, multiple types of ear protection can be used together to increase the NRR. For example, foam earplugs can be worn in-conjunction with earmuffs. Each type of ear protection has what is called a noise reduction rating (NRR). This gives the consumer an estimate of how much noise is being reduced before reaching the individual's ear.

5. Earmuffs - Wikipedia

   The amount of noise reduction from dual hearing protection is NOT a sum of the noise reductions ratings from the two devices. [26] For example, if wearing an earplug with a NRR of 25 dB and an earmuff with an NRR of 20 dB, the combined protection would not be 45 dB. Instead, 5 dB should be added to the higher of the two NRRs. [26]

   The second earplug is then placed in the other ear and the procedure is repeated a third time. The required increase in loudness this time represents the noise reduction achieved in the second ear. The loudness balance fit-testing approach provides individual personal attenuation ratings for each ear. [24]
