Yes, especially if that heater does not have any electronic component inside since it will be damaged if operated at a frequency other then it's rated frequency. But, most electronic devices have been made such that they can work on either 50/60Hz. It's still advicable though to check on the heater's body,at it's supply cable's entrance, for it's frequency.

Yes no problem the transformer should run a little cooler as well.

probably yes because 220 volts usually work on 50 to 60 Hz

Will a 220v 60Hz US mig welder work with a 220v 50Hz supply in Africa?

Hi - it should be OK but the transformer might overheat a little if it is used intensively, so it need to be used carefully. The reason is that the magnetic flux in the core is 15-20% greater at 50 Hz, and that increases the heat produced in the transformer. Going in reverse, a 50 Hz transformer will work fine on 60 Hz.

Can you use 50hz insted of 60hz?

I've seen it done, but be certain that the motor is connected to the correct VOLTAGE. The UK uses a 50Hz, 240V electrical system. The US uses a 60 Hz, 120/240V. The motor you are referring to was probably used in the UK, so will probably need 240V.


How do you change a 220V 50Hz electric water heater to 60Hz 220V?

Not without spending a great deal of money. Appliances with motors and timers at 50 Hz would have to be changed out to 60 Hz components. Appliances that are strictly of a resistive nature will operate without any problem.


Will 60 hz fridge work on 50 hz?

What does the TV's nameplate say? If it says 120v/60Hz it is designed for use on the US/Canada power system, and will only work in countries elsewhere in the world which use that same system. If it says 240v/50Hz it is designed for use on the European power system and will only work in countries elsewhere in the world which use that same system. If it says 120/240v 50/60Hz it can be used on either. Keep in mind as well that if the TV is meant for 50Hz instead of 60Hz, it may be a PAL (European standard) video type instead of NTSC (American standard), so that may be a problem also. For more information on the different voltages, frequencies and plugs used around the world see the answer to the Related Question shown below and its Related Links .

What size wire for a welding extension cord 220v 50 amps?

Wire size depends on amps. Use #10 for 30a. #8 for 40 or 50a. #6 for 60a.


How can you convert US 120V or 240V circuit into a single phase 240V circuit to use on a European appliance?

The voltage isn't a problem, you can run 220 from your house and use that to run a European appliance, the problem is whether the appliance is dependant on line HZ. European is 50HZ and US is 60HZ. If the appliance specifies 220/50HZ, it will probably give you trouble here. If it says 220V/50 or 60HZ


How do you rewire a European 240V welder to work on US 240V?

The following is an educated guess. 240 Volts is 240 Volts. Unless the equipment inherently depends on some aspect of the frequency for operation [50 hertz instead of 60 hertz], it should work if you simply change the plug. WHY NOT CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER FOR ITS ADVICE?!

If you have a computer which start with 110v so by using converter can the computer starts with 220v?

Yes. If the computer power input is only rated for 110V input, you can power it from 220V by using a voltage converter from 220V to 110V with appropriate wattage. Some computer power supplies also have a switch for setting 110V/220V in which case computer can be powered from 220V after changing the setting. Most of the portable computers/laptops have power adapters which are rated for universal voltage (e.g. my Dell laptop AC adapter is rated for 100-240V 50-60Hz).


What voltage is used in Germany?

AC voltage is 220v in Germany.Normal household appliances are 240v, some dual phase appliances such as cookers are 400v.


Is 220V US the same as in France Europe?

Europe uses 230V used to be 240 but was changed a few years back. In France, voltage is 220V and frequency is 50 hertz


Will a 220v 50hz tv will work on 220v 60hz?

220V 60 Hz will be found between phases of a 3 phase 117V system (like the one used in North America).220V 50 Hz will be found between phase and ground (neutral) in many Europe and countries (though now it has been standardized to 240V 50 Hz).The frequency of the alternating current is a significant difference in many applications but some equipment is not frequency sensitive (tungsten filament light bulbs for example).

Can I use a 220V oven with 110V outlet?

No, and if you don't have a 220v outlet, you will need an electrician to run a #8 copper wire with a direct line to the electrical panel (40 or 50 amp), depending on the oven's requirments - check the manual.


Can you use 220v power tools on 110vo?

Yes, they will just work at half spped and power. Becare ful not to use a long time as there might be overheating due to 50/60 Hz issue.
