The difference between 60 Hz and 50 Hz will not be of much trouble, but NZ voltage is 230 V ac. Power tools are quite cheap in NZ due to imports from China, USA, etc.

Why is the word hertz used to describe frequency?

The word 'hertz' comes from Heinrich Rudolph Hertz, a German physicist who discovered the electrical waves (cycles), as well as the photo-electric effect.


What is used to measure hertz?

This unit was named after a person, so it is capitalized: Hertz. A Hertz is a unit of one cycle per second in an electric circuit. Outside of an electric circuit, the correct unit is CPS, or cycles per second.

Can New Zealand household electrical appliances be used in the US?

I believe that you can't use New Zealand household electric appliances in the US without adaptations. The residential voltage/Frequency (Hz) in New Zealand is 130V/50 Hz while in US it is 120V/60 Hz <<>> The voltage in New Zealand is 230 volt 50Hertz. The voltage in North America is 120/240 volts at 60 Hertz. A totally resistive appliance will operate fine on the 240 volt portion of the 120/240 volt system. Any appliances that have a motor to operate will not work as efficiently. A 50 Hertz motor on a 60 Hertz system will overheat and run slower. Many appliances use synchronous timer motors for control of the larger appliances. The timing of the appliance will be thrown off as the timers will run faster due to the appliances design to operate only on 50 Hertz.


What does hertz determine?

Hertz determines the frequency of a wave, specifically the number of cycles per second. In the context of sound, hertz indicates the pitch of a sound, with higher frequencies corresponding to higher pitches. In the context of electronics, hertz refers to the frequency of an electromagnetic wave, such as the frequency of an alternating electric current.

What will 50 hertz do to a 60 hertz tv?

The main problem is that the picture transmission standards are different in different countries so that in general TVs do not work in that situation.
