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
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.
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.
i think 240 vo uses less
No, 120 v is not enough.
It should work with no problems, since the frequency does not affect the work or the iron heater.
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. === === === ===
No you can't use a 415v motor in a 240 v socket.
220VAnswer220 V @ 50 Hz, Plug is G.
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
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.
Across the whole of Africa the domestic supply is single phase 50Hz and in the range, depending on country, from 220 to 240 Volts.
