The unit hertz means "cycles per second" and is a measure of the frequency of variation of anything which changes during a set period of time, including electric current and voltage. Saying that a generator of electricity runs at 50 hertz means that its current and voltage changes regularly at a rate of 50 times per second. Saying that a generator of electricity runs at 60 hertz means that its current and voltage changes regularly at a rate of 60 times per second. The Hertz value can be changed on the generator by increasing or decreasing the speed (RPM) of the prime mover. The generator has a feed back unit that monitors the frequency and automatically applies more power to the prime mover if the load increases and the generator RPM starts to slow down. The reverse happens if the load drops off and the generator starts to speed up, the power to the prime mover will be reduced. On a diesel generator it is the fuel flow that is increased and decreased to keep the frequency at a constant value. On a water turbine it is the water flow that is increased and decreased to keep the frequency at a constant value.

What is a 400 hertz generator mean?
It's a generator that creates 400hz AC signals, instead of 50 or 60hz. 400hz is often used on ships, because the equipment (generators, transformers) can be made much smaller.
What is the meaning that generator provide 5.6KW 230V AC 50 Hz?
The specification of a generator providing 5.6 kW, 230V AC, and 50 Hz indicates its power output and electrical characteristics. The generator can deliver a maximum power of 5.6 kilowatts (kW), suitable for running various appliances. The voltage output is 230 volts alternating current (AC), which is a common standard in many countries. The frequency of 50 hertz (Hz) refers to the number of cycles per second of the AC, typically used in regions like Europe and Asia.

What is 3 phase voltage in Iran?

What does 50 Hz mean or specify?
"50 Hz" is the shortened form of "50 hertz" which means "50 cycles per second". 50 Hz is the frequency of alternating current (ac) used by national electricity power services in many countries in Europe and elsewhere in the world whilst in USA, Canada and many other countries it is 60 Hz.
What can happen if you connect a 60 hertz air conditioning unit to a 50 hertz generator?
Probable the air conditioner doesn't work well.

What is the Electrical supply IN THE UK?
Home electrical service in the UK is 230 volts at 50 hertz.
Will AC 220-240v 50hz battery charger work in America?
No, the U.S. electrical system is 60 hertz not 50 hertz. The only way you can use it is if the charger will operate at 50 & 60 hertz which is unlikely but possible. It will be listed on the charger if it will operate at a lower hertz.
220 volts 60 hertz to 220 volts 50 hertz?
Original Answer:If the power was being generated by a generator all that has to be done is slow the RPM of the generator down until the frequency meter reads 50 Hertz. On a hydro site it would be the same scenario by slowing the turbine down.Improved Answer:changing frequency is one of the more difficult things to do. Decreasing the speed of a generator is not a practical answer if the power comes from grid. You can use a variable frequency drive, or a motor generator set (Where the motor is rated for 60HZ, and the Generator is rated at 50 Hertz).For practical purposes, just get rid of the 50 hertz device and buy a new one.
What is the generated electrical line frequency in Bahrain?
50 Hz as per the info available from their official website
Will Australian electrical appliances work in US?
No, not without a converter. Australia's current is 240 volts at 50 hertz.
What is the frequency of household electricity?
In North America, it is 60 Hertz, and in Europe it is 50 hertz.

Is there a Measure to convert 60 hz into 50 hz?
There is nothing to convert. You are using the same unit of measurement. A hertz is a hertz, all you are dealing with is 10 less Hertz. 60 Hertz - 10 Hertz = 50 Hertz The difference is 10 Hertz. The math there is just to give you a clear example and illustrate my point. What you are asking for is similar to someone asking "how do you convert miles to miles" or "how do I convert inches to inches".
How long is 1 gigahertz?
A 'Hertz' is a change in electrical state. It is measured over one second. 'Giga' is referring to 10^9 or one billion. A Gigahertz is a frequency change of one billion Hertz in one second. Electrical current that is commonly called 'alternating current' (AC) ranges from 50 to 60 Hertz at 110 to 220 Volts.
