How do you wire a GFCI if there are 2 black wires?
You will have to run new electrical wire or a single ground wire back to the panel (though the former is highly recommended). A GFCI outlet will cut off the circuit if it senses voltage leaking to ground. If there is no ground wire, it will not function.
Will another electrical outlet that is in line with a GFCI outlet cause it to kick off?
A down stream receptacle that is connected to the upstream GFCI will be protected. If the downstream receptacle senses a fault the upstream GFCI will trip.
How do you switch on a light bulb by clapping?
You have to install a device known as a "clapper" into your receptacle outlet. Plug your lamp into this device. It is sound activated. When you clap your hands the device senses the frequency of the clap and activated its internal circuitry. This closes a relay that supplies voltage to the lamp and it turns on.
Is a sump pump an open loop system?
A typical sump pump just sits there and does nothing until a sensor detects that sufficient water is present to turn on. If it just pumped forever it would be open loop. The fact that it also senses when the water has been pumped and stops makes it a closed loop system. If you're referring to the water in the system, it is an open loop system, since the water is not held in the system.
Slam shut valve?
Slam Shut-off valve is installed immediately after the filter & prior to the Regulator. It normally remains open, incase the outlet pressure of the regulator exceeds the permissible limits, the slam shut off the valve senses it through the impulse line & immediately shuts off the flow to the downstream. When the regulator is repaired, the slam shut off is to be open manually by pulling the knob. Once the flow starts through the shut off valve it will remain open till the outlet pressure of the regulator is within limits.

Does a back up generator need initial electricity to work?
No, a backup generator does not need initial power to work. Once it senses that the main source of power is cut off, the control will send a signal to the generator and the generator will kick start and provide electricity until it senses that a stable power source has returned. Then, it would switch off and be on standby mode again.
