Yes that's fine provided the voltage is the same in both cases.
But if a 60 Hz transformer is run on 50 Hz it might run slightly warmer than usual so it might need to be derated by 20% or so.
Comment
It might be worth while pointing out that it's the voltage that needs to be derated by around 20% when a 60-Hz transformer is operated at 50 Hz.
What else can I help you with?
What will happen to the transformer if DC voltage is applied to the primary winding?
DC current will not pass through a transformer, in the sense that a DC current on the primary will not produce a DC output from the secondary. A constant DC current will not produce any output from the secondary but there may be transient effects as the DC current is connected or disconnected (in which case, it's really an AC current, isn't it?) More about this below because I don't think that's really the question. If you pass DC current through either winding of a transformer, two things will happen. First, you will heat up the transformer and, if you have enough DC current, you will burn it out. Second, you will induce a magnetic field in the core. The more current, the closer the core gets to "saturation" or the maximum field it can support. This is important if there is both DC and AC current present because the more DC field in the core, the less core capacity is available to "transform" AC current. As the core operates closer to saturation, the AC waveform will be distorted and some of the AC power will be lost to heating the transformer. For example, if the primary of a transformer is connected to an AC source, and a DC source is connected to the secondary, then the primary current drawn by the transformer will increase, possibly enough to destroy the transformer. There are special transformers, called magnetic amplifiers, which take advantage of this effect to use a DC current to modulate an AC current. There are transient effects of DC currents in a transformer winding. As the DC current magnetizes the core, energy is stored. When the DC current is disconnected, this stored energy wants to leave the core. It can do this by inducing a voltage in either of the windings. If both windings are open circuit, this voltage can be very high. So you may see a spark jump when the DC voltage is disconnected. In a large transformer, this discharge may break down the transformer insulation and damage it. Some switching power supplies take advantage of this effect in which case the transformer is wound slightly differently and called a "coupled inductor."
What is multiple class CT?
a ct is a current transformer the primary is one turn this can be a hole you pass a wire thru the laminations the wire you pass thru the hole can be 300v 600volt or 13200Volt insulation the core is bolted to the enclosure clamp on ammeter Amprobe are portable multi class current transformers with meters right on the side
Can a cvt also be used as CT?
No. A CVT (capacitor voltage transformer), like an voltage transformer, has a high primary impedance. the connections of a CT require the high voltage current to pass through the primary winding. This would result in significant loading of the circuit in question, at least until the CVT cooked.
Can a transformer pass a pulse waveform?
Yes transformation will be possible for all Dc Pulse .
What is AN on a transformer?
It is electronic device which pass or transform a electric energy from one ckt to anoher ckt The answer is wrong. AN denotes the cooling method of Transformer. AN means Air Natural
What will happen if you pass AC current through a transformer?
If the transformer was designed for the specific frequency in use, it will step up or down voltage and current as it was designed to do. Transformers transform how power "looks" by increasing and decreasing voltage and current, while keeping power output equivalent to input (if you ignore the transformer losses).

Can a transformer run on a higher-than-zero sine wave?
Well first of all DC does not have a sine wave. DC current is one direction only and would appear as a flat line on a graph. Second no DC doesn't not work on a transformer because it becomes saturated at a constant level. You need oscillating voltages to pass through a transformer.

Will a 230v 50hz 60v output system power supply work in a 240v 60hz system?
This question is not very clear. If you mean "will a power supply designed for an input of 230V 50 Hz and giving an output of 60V DC work with an input of 240V 60Hz ?" then the answer is yes, mostly. Th only reason for the word mostly is that if the output is electronically stabilised, then trying to draw the full rated output current when the input is overvoltage might shorten the life of the 'pass' transistor in the stabiliser. Although the input is only about 4% high, you would be advised to derate the load current by 10%. If the stabiliser is a 'switched mode' type you can ignore the above paragraph. If there is no stabilisation at all, then it will work ok but the output will be about 63V. If what you are asking is not what you see in paragraph 1, please ask the question again, trying to say what it is you need.
How you can find positive and negative in a transformer?
There is no positive and negative on a transformer. Transformers will only pass AC (alternating current), due to the fact that induction will only occur with a moving field. The current has to be changing polarity and intensity continuosly, for the current to be induced in the windings. Both terminals on the output vary, with relation to each other. Put DC into a transformer and the coils will saturate, overheat and probably burn out.

What happens if you supply a 60 Hz ballast with 50 Hz power supply?
I first asked the question. I was told by an electrical engineer that the appliances would breakdown after between 1 day and 2 weeks use and he advised me to sell and buy new appliances in the Philippines. I was not able to obtain a reasonable price for selling second hand appliances and also found that appliances in the Philippines were very expensive compared to Malaysia. I was also told in the Philippines that the appliances would work satisfactorily . So I installed all the appliances and after 3 months they work OK except the clock which gains about 3 hours per day.My appliances include 2 refridgerators. 2 wine coolers, freezer.4 TV's,washing machine ,dryer,dishwasher,computer,fax ,etc. David dlw@tm.net.my
