Use a transforer. The same is possible with European 230 volts to European 120 volts. If that should be necessary. US 220 volt service is simply two 110 volt cables connected to the same outlet.

A: Two ways one is a transformer with the proper ratio primary to secondary not forgetting the power needed. the other is by chopping the AC to DC and reconstructing to AC FOR THE VOLTAGE NEEDED. the power needed

you can use a convertor 2:1 transformer. Be careful on speed. A standard 60hz 1800 rpm motor will only run at 1500 rpms at 50 cycle and some heat will be generated.

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 run a 60hz 110V motor on 50 hz 220V with a step down transformer?

NO dear we can not rotate a 110 vlolt motor on 220,but if your voltage is 110v then y can rotate it on 50hz ,no problem,but it will rotate at lower speed, ENGR. NASEER AHMED,PAKISTAN


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.


Can you convert motor winding 50 hz to 60 hz?

60Hz frequency on 50 Hz motor will create more resistance in its coils. Will cause electromagnetic force trying to increase the speed of the rotor by about 20 %. Less current will flow but the torque will be less, because of the increased resistance of the coils. Usually if the motor is not loaded much it will work fine on 60 Hz. One solution if there is problem running the motor is to remove part of the all coils equally from all of the bobbins by 10-20% .CommentThe resistance of the coils will remain unchanged, however, their inductive reactance will increase -thus reducing the current.


What is 50 hz motor?

It is a motor where the frequency of the AC voltage is 50 cycles per second. In U.S.A. 60 Hz is standard. 50 Hz would be overseas.

Will a clothes dryer rated at 220V 60 HZ work in a country that uses 220V 50 HZ?

Probably .. the fan will run a bit slower and the motor will get a bit hotter the timer will change from 1 hr to 1.16 hours


Can a UK washing machine work in Jamaica?

Can it? With modifications, yes. However, the electrical power in Jamaica is 110 v 50 Hz, which is not compatible with the UK 220v 50 HZ. Hose fittings could also be different. For the cost of shipping a UK washer to Jamaica, AND modifying it, you could order one made to Jamaican specifications.

What happens to a 220v 50hz stereo amplifier when connected to a 220v 60hz supply?

Nothing happens. The stereo has a transformer that converts the power to DC, and 50 or 60 Hz input makes no difference.


Can you plug a 220v 50 hz refrigerator into a 220v 60Hz outlet?

No, the compressor& fan will run too fast and will more than likely be damaged. It may not be damaged but I would not take a chance.

What is the mains voltage barbados?

Same as the US and Canada, 110 V. However it has an electrical frequency of 50 Hz, which is 60 Hz in the US and Canada.


What is the electric frequency of USA?

Standard US power is 110-120v at 60 hz. Heavy appliances are usually 220-240v at 50 hz.
