If you are trying to connect a standby genset to house power, there are 2 ways to go about it
one is to have a 3 way switch in the house meter box and a caravan plug attached to the switch. This means that you have to physically switch off the mains power ,through centre point to get set power . using a lead to the caravan plug from the genset will then give you power to the house. You cannot have it so that the mains power and genset power are on at the same time
The second way is to have the genset connected through a mains operated relay where by when the mains power is off ( blackout) the relay closes for the genset and power is on to the house ( best with electric start gensets) When the mains power comes back on the relay changes over and shuts the genset off
Regardless of which way you want to go, discuss the options with an accredited electrician for best advice as it is not a job foe DIY's.

Flat battery on my bentley flying spur how to open boot

There should be a red "+" point under the hood. Connect jumper leads or a booster pack to this point and a good earth point on the chassis or engine block and use the remote key fob to open the trunk.

Power source for ecm and destination of efi fuse for ford mondeo 2.0 16v mk 1 zetec south african make and a pin layout of ecm

Hello! The ZETEC engine was used in the 1999 Ford Escort...I do not know what year your vehicle is, however the pin layouts are the same...

The Fuel Injector Fuse (30A) feeds the injectors via normally open contacts of the PCM Power Relay on a Red/White wire (which becomes Red at the injectors) on pin #12 of the Constant Control Module...
The wire colors of injector control leads (at the injectors) are..#3=Brown/Yellow...#1=Tan...#4=Brown/Light Blue...And #2=White

Wire colors at the PCM plug are...#3=Brown/White (pin 74)...#1=Yellow (pin 75...#4=Green/Orange (pin100)...and #2=Violet/Yellow (pin 103)...

Size restrictions on attachments do not allow me to send the entire PCM...aka...ECM pin layout to you...

Where is the power steering pump located on the flying spur 2006

The power steering pump should be on the driver's side(U.S.) and the resevoir to fill or check is the yellow-ish bottle on the left fender, nearest the front. This may depend on which engine you have under the bonnet. Beautiful cars.

What is differential on a front wheel drive car?

The differential on a front wheel drive car is not a separate component, but is part of (inside) the transaxle. On a rear wheel drive car, the transmission and differential (drive axle) are separate, and connected togrther via a driveshaft.

The purpose of a differential is to allow the two driven wheels to turn at different speeds. As the car goes around a corner, the outside wheel travels further than the inside wheel, and thus must turn more revolutions. If the two wheels were solidly connected together, one tire would skid any time the car was not travelling in a straight line.
