Electricity, or AC (alternating current) runs in cycles. It has a positive and negative cycle. One cycle is also referred to as one hertz. In electronics a cycle is also known as a hertz. So when referring to 60 hertz, look at it as seeing one cycle 60 times in a second.

What is the US calculation of 110V 60hz?
Do you mean definition? If so 110V = 110 volts-60hz = 60 hertz. Hertz is the cycles that the electricity runs at. 60hz. is the US standard. Europe is at 50hz.
Can you wire your home with both 120v 60Hz and 230v 50Hz electricity?
No, these are two different distribution systems. The North American system uses 60 Hz and the European system uses 50 Hz.
What is the 5th harmonic of 60hz?
1920
How can you determine if an electric motor is 50HZ or 60HZ if there is no name plate?
One way would be to hook it up to a supply (by itself, with no load) and measure the speed with a contact tachometer. If your supply is 60Hz, and the motor speed corresponded to one of the standard motor speeds, it would be a pretty safe bet you had a 60Hz motor. If the speed was about 20% faster than a standard speed, the motor is probably a 50Hz motor. Or 20% slower if you were running a 60Hz motor on 50Hz For instance, a 1750 RPM 50Hz motor would spin at about 2100 RPM if you ran it on 60Hz.
How many amps extension lead would you need to run a 60Hz pump?
This can not be answered with the information you have given. 60Hz does not relate the the current draw so wire size can not be calculated.
If electricity has a frequency of 60Hz it?
The frequency is 60 Hz in the USA.

Do you mean definition? If so 110V = 110 volts-60hz = 60 hertz. Hertz is the cycles that the electricity runs at. 60hz. is the US standard. Europe is at 50hz.
What is the voltage for 60hz?
Let me want to know 60Hz with how much voltage is available
Can i use an American Apple TV in Australia?
No. Australia's electricity supply is 230 volts at 50Hz... america's is 120 volts at 60Hz.
What is meant by antiflicker in campera 50hz and 60hz?
Antiflicker in cameras refers to a feature that reduces the appearance of flickering lights in photographs or videos. The numbers 50Hz and 60Hz refer to the frequency of alternating current used in different regions. Cameras with antiflicker capabilities can adjust their settings to match the frequency and minimize the impact of flickering lights caused by differences in electricity frequency.
Do you need 60hz or 120hz for xbox 360 Kinect?
60hz works fine with kinect
How much electricity do you waste?
With the price of electricity high and expected to get much higher I do not use much electricity and waste even less
Can you wire your home with both 120v 60Hz and 230v 50Hz electricity?
No, these are two different distribution systems. The North American system uses 60 Hz and the European system uses 50 Hz.
Is 60hz better for the eyes than 75hz?
75HZ is better than 60HZ for eye and for pc when v-sync is on
What does the average Canadian house use in electrical hertz?
The average Canadian house uses 110-120V AC 50-60Hz electricity for small appliance outlets such as Televisions, small kitchen appliances and personal computers. Larger electrical appliances such as clothes dryers, and central Air Conditioning units may use 240V AC 50-60Hz circuits.
Do they have electricity in Cuba?
Yes, they have electricity in Cuba. The Cuban power outlets are suited for use with the North American flat blade type electrical plugs (caps). In general the voltage in Havana is 110V AC 60Hz, but some of the newer hotels have 220 V AC 60 Hz as well.
What is the standard voltage in Alberta Canada?
Household is 120/240 volts at 60Hz. The average wall socket is 120v 60Hz.
