It's OK but if it's a motor it might run 20% faster.

It will run faster by 10 Hz and will tend to take more current to deliver the rated KW load, since the rated voltage is 240 but applied voltage is 220Volts

How can you convert US 120V or 240V circuit into a single phase 240V circuit to use on a European appliance?

The voltage isn't a problem, you can run 220 from your house and use that to run a European appliance, the problem is whether the appliance is dependant on line HZ. European is 50HZ and US is 60HZ. If the appliance specifies 220/50HZ, it will probably give you trouble here. If it says 220V/50 or 60HZ

It depends on the TV; you'll have to check the specification of the TV in question.

Yes. In the United States, standard household voltage is 120VAC @ 60Hz. If properly installed, you can also run standard devices at 220 or 240 volts AC in the US.


I have an ac unit which is requesting 220-240 50hz power but have 220 60hz available can I run it on this?

Yes you can run it on a 60 Hz system but eventually it will go down because of the increased power frequency... This must be a unit for Europe or England or elsewhere in the world where they have 50 Hz power. It is much more complicated than the answer above implies.For more information see the answer to the Related Question "Can a European 230 Volt 50 Hz appliance be plugged into a 240 volt 60 Hz wall outlet in USA or Canada?"shown below.

How can you run a 380v 50hz motor with 440v 60hz source?

Yes. It will make your motor a little faster though, so it depends on what you are powering with this motor. IE Can the piece of eguipment be ran faster?


Will a 220V 60Hz Air-conditioner run safely at 230V 50Hz?

Not really because motors are designed to run at either 50 or 60 Hz and the wrong frequency might cause them to malfunction or overheat.


Can you use the 220v 50hz appliances in 110v 60hz?

Depends. Some smaller stuff can usually run on both, in which case it will be printed on them. If it isn't, you can't run a 220v item on 110v.
