Yes, 240 volts is generated at 50 Hertz. This is a European frequency where as the frequency generated in North America is 60 Hertz.

No. Voltage in Australia: 240 V --- 50Hz Voltage in Canada: 120 V --- 60Hz


How many volts are in a UK wall socket?

230-240 It's described as 230 v for harmonisation with Europe, with a tolerance of -6% +10% to allow for the fact that the actual supply voltage in most places is 240 v, and there are no plans to change it. So 230 v is the political answer, while 240 v is the real answer.


Can 230volts 1 phase50Hz can use to 240Volts 1 phase 50Hz?

Supply voltages are simply 'nominal', or 'named' voltages, and they are allowed to vary in value within statutory limits. In the UK, for example, the nominal supply voltage is 230 V but is allowed to vary within the range +10% to -6%. 240 V is well within this range and, so, yes, there is absolutely nothing wrong with using a 240-V load with a 230- V supply or vice versa.

Will a 220v 50hz inverter work on 120v 60hz?

No, 120 v is not enough.


What will happen if you use a 220 240 VAc 50Hz iron to 220 240 AC 60Hz?

It should work with no problems, since the frequency does not affect the work or the iron heater.


Does the UK household have 240 volts?

Originally the UK mains supply voltage was specified at 240 Volts AC or, more precisely, 240 Volts RMS +/-6%. The alternating current runs at a frequency of 50Hz. Some time ago, to allow harmonisation across Europe, the specifications were changed to 230 Volts RMS +10%/-6%, also running at a frequency of 50Hz. Thus the mains supply voltage will remain within European Union norms (standards) even if it varies between an upper limit of 253 Volts and a lower limit of 216.2 Volts. === === === ===

What is the meaning 50hz?

50 Hertz (Hz) is the measurement of cycle duty (amount of time something is repeated in a second) or the amount of times in electricity the alternating current transverses from positive to negative .Eg 240v at 50hz means electricity will alternate 50 times between 240 volts positive and 240 volts negative in ONE SECOND


Can a 240 Volts delta motor run on 440 Volts star connection?

If it is a 240 v delta motor it needs a 240 v three-phase supply, which has 139 v between line and neutral, so 440 v would not be acceptable.
