Yes, especially if that heater does not have any electronic component inside since it will be damaged if operated at a frequency other then it's rated frequency. But, most electronic devices have been made such that they can work on either 50/60Hz. It's still advicable though to check on the heater's body,at it's supply cable's entrance, for it's frequency.

Will a 220v 60Hz US mig welder work with a 220v 50Hz supply in Africa?
Hi - it should be OK but the transformer might overheat a little if it is used intensively, so it need to be used carefully. The reason is that the magnetic flux in the core is 15-20% greater at 50 Hz, and that increases the heat produced in the transformer. Going in reverse, a 50 Hz transformer will work fine on 60 Hz.
How many amperes for 3 phase 220v 5 tonner?

What is the value of resistance ot coil having impedance of 50ohm connected across 240v at 0.8 p.f?
To find the resistance of a coil with an impedance of 50 ohms connected across 240V at a power factor of 0.8, we can use the formula for power factor: ( \text{p.f.} = \frac{R}{Z} ), where ( R ) is the resistance and ( Z ) is the impedance. Rearranging gives ( R = \text{p.f.} \times Z ). Thus, ( R = 0.8 \times 50 , \text{ohms} = 40 , \text{ohms} ). Therefore, the resistance of the coil is 40 ohms.
Can you use 50hz insted of 60hz?
I've seen it done, but be certain that the motor is connected to the correct VOLTAGE. The UK uses a 50Hz, 240V electrical system. The US uses a 60 Hz, 120/240V. The motor you are referring to was probably used in the UK, so will probably need 240V.
How do you change a 220V 50Hz electric water heater to 60Hz 220V?
Not without spending a great deal of money. Appliances with motors and timers at 50 Hz would have to be changed out to 60 Hz components. Appliances that are strictly of a resistive nature will operate without any problem.
How do you rewire a European 240V welder to work on US 240V?
The following is an educated guess. 240 Volts is 240 Volts. Unless the equipment inherently depends on some aspect of the frequency for operation [50 hertz instead of 60 hertz], it should work if you simply change the plug. WHY NOT CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER FOR ITS ADVICE?!
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
What size wire for a welding extension cord 220v 50 amps?
For a 220V 50A welder, you would need a minimum of 6-gauge wire for your extension cord to ensure it can handle the current safely. It's recommended to use a heavy-duty, outdoor-rated extension cord with appropriate wire gauge and length to avoid voltage drop and overheating.

If you have a computer which start with 110v so by using converter can the computer starts with 220v?
Yes. If the computer power input is only rated for 110V input, you can power it from 220V by using a voltage converter from 220V to 110V with appropriate wattage. Some computer power supplies also have a switch for setting 110V/220V in which case computer can be powered from 220V after changing the setting. Most of the portable computers/laptops have power adapters which are rated for universal voltage (e.g. my Dell laptop AC adapter is rated for 100-240V 50-60Hz).
What voltage is used in Germany?
AC voltage is 220v in Germany.Normal household appliances are 240v, some dual phase appliances such as cookers are 400v.
What is the recommended wire size for a 240V 50 amp circuit?
The recommended wire size for a 240V 50 amp circuit is typically 6 AWG copper wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 240V 50 amp circuit?
The appropriate wire size for a 240V 50 amp circuit is typically 6 AWG copper wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 50 amp 240v circuit?
The appropriate wire size for a 50 amp 240v circuit is typically 6 AWG copper wire.
Is 220V US the same as in France Europe?
Europe uses 230V used to be 240 but was changed a few years back. In France, voltage is 220V and frequency is 50 hertz
If you have 240V equipment from Europe can you use a 240V line to create standard household plugs that run at 240V if you are in North America?
No. This can lead to dangerous results. First, it violates electrical codes to use higher than standard US voltage for portable appliances. There is a much greater risk of fire because the appliances will not be protected by the types and ratings of circuit breakers typical in Europe. Also, the electrical frequency in Europe is different than that in the US (50 vs 60 Hertz). This would affect performance of many appliances and can result in overheating. There are other technical details that have potential for trouble (including electric shock hazard depending upon what type of equipment you had hoped to use). So, stay safe and don't use the European equipment in the US. I have run 220v 20A connections throughout my house with European Schukostecker -- Euroean outlets -- and the appliances run fine without issue. I have plugged in lamps, hairdryers, toaster ovens, printers, etc. to this connection. If the amperage on the line gets too high, the breaker will break. If you do install 220V outlets make sure you use correct wire and breaker sizes. Do not oversize breakers by using an existing oven or dryer circuit, this is very dangerous!! You can purchase 220V breakers of all sizes here, use the correct one. I would also recomment using US 220V outlets and not European outlets as the European outlets are not underwritten in this country and that may cause your house to fail an inspection. You can buy 15A 220V outlets at most home centers here that meet US safety requirements. Then if you need European outlets use some European powerstrips with a US plug installed. Again, use US equipment to install in your home. What you plug into it is your decision.
Will a 220v 50hz tv will work on 220v 60hz?
220V 60 Hz will be found between phases of a 3 phase 117V system (like the one used in North America).220V 50 Hz will be found between phase and ground (neutral) in many Europe and countries (though now it has been standardized to 240V 50 Hz).The frequency of the alternating current is a significant difference in many applications but some equipment is not frequency sensitive (tungsten filament light bulbs for example).
