What does Pal mean on tv?

PAL is the color encoding method used in Europe and other parts of the world. North America, Japan and other countries use NTSC. Although the two encoding methods are similar, the signals are not compatible. A third color standard used by France is SECAM. SECAM is used in a handful of other countries but is not a common standard. PAL and SECAM encoded signals are normally used at 50Hz while NTSC normally uses 59.94Hz. There are some rare exceptions to these field rates but it is normally safe to assume that 50Hz material will be PAL encoded and 59.94Hz will be NTSC encoded.

Countries using pal format?

PAL is the color encoding system developed by the British and Germans. It differed from the American NTSC encoding system in several ways and the two are not directly compatible. Because of the British links to the rest of the world, most British colonies (currently or previously) use PAL. This now extends to most of Europe, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. The Americas and the far East tend to be NTSC regions but for a full list, there are many web sites that show every country and the formats they use. France chose a different format when it began color broadcasts, known as SECAM. Although SECAM is still used for the final broadcast, all television production uses PAL format for ease of signal processing. The content is converted to SECAM for distribution to viewers. Several of the French colonies still use SECAM although the format is becoming less popular. With the advent of high definition television, PAL, NTSC and SECAM are no longer used. Each of them are color encoding systems for standard definition signals only and encoding for HD does not use them. However, HD is still often incorrectly referred to as PAL or NTSC. Partly, this is due to the fact that NTSC uses a 60Hz frame rate while PAL uses a 50Hz frame rate. The move to HD has retained the differing frame rates. HD PAL therefore is more properly known as 50Hz HD.

Can you use your 240v 50hz tv in the USA using a step up transformer and if you could will it be bad for the equipment?

The outlet isn't the only problem here.Before the DTV switchover there were three standards for televisions: NTSC, PAL and SECAM. NTSC was in the US and Korea, PAL in most of Europe, SECAM in France, Russia and the Middle East. Unless you had a multisystem TV, you couldn't watch American TV on a German TV set.Now there are six different standards. I don't know why. It still means you can't watch TV in the US on a European TV set.
