A lot of points are factored when a utility decides to choose 50 or 60 hz, compare with america the machinces are constructed with 60 hz frequency and another reason is america is ecnomically better than the India so when freqency is high the power transmisson is at high rate and loosses also high.when they are economically good so for redusing the looses they are using good insulaters.
What else can I help you with?
Which frequency is better 50Hz or 60Hz?
50 hz is better .At this freq several losses in motors and power sys r reduced a lot when compared to 60 hz .also in 60hz sys the laminations must made thinner increasing initial cost.the advantage of 60 hz is ,we know that in present turbo alternator sys speed obtained is much higher than 3000rpm so this can utilised upto 3600rpm in caseof 60 hz sys
How do ram GHz affect your computer?
Hz on a RAM is the speed of which the hardware can read. the higher the Hz the faster RAM.
Why does the North American grid use the 60 Hz frequency in electrical generation?
There is no reason to prefer one Hz frequency over the other. In places like Japan both 50 and 60Hz frequencies co-exist together. It is simply the way North America has used since the development of the electrical power grid and there is no reason to need to go to a 50Hz system.
Voltage in Canada?
120 V @ 60 Hz
Why is the frequency of current 50Hz in India against 60Hz in the USA What should be done to make it 60Hz in India?
A lot of points are factored when a utility decides to choose 50 or 60 hertz, sometimes it may even been a political rather than a technical one. We have seen various types of wars on measurements types of units used or have been an interested but an innocent invitee in format wars in electronics like 8 track v/s cassette, v2000 (an excellent system) V/s the betamax (also with some notable features) and the vhs. Now we are also extended into the video disc formats. However if we were to look closely many of us will agree that 60hz is a good choice. All inductors and motors could be smaller, and the benefits will encompass a wide array of electrical and electronic goods to which the changes will almost be transparent. But it should be noted that most critical and large capital intensive plants and machinery, including certain medical equipment, will not take too kindly to such a change, which, besides straying from the critical specs, or worse still may give up altogether, unless expensive time consuming replacement or an equally complicated and efficient cycle converter is installed before the system is connected to the mains. As a historical note, 60Hz was originally chosen in the US to help market AC power systems to customers. The ploy was that a clock could run using a synchronous AC motor and at 60Hz, the gear mechanism would be greatly simplified. Then the job of keeping accurate time fell to the electricity company by maintaining a constant frequency. Prior to this, many different frequencies had been tried. As regards 50 Hz in India it is descendant of the British Imperial system. Technically speaking operating 50 Hz versus 60 Hz would not make much difference but, to achieve it, either the prime movers - for example steam turbines, gas turbines and diesel engines - would need to be able to tolerate a 20% increase in speed or the alternators they drive - which produce the electricity - would need to be completely rebuilt with extra poles and windings so that they could continue to run at the same rotational speed. The costs of doing such re-engineering would be enormous and could not be justified as "economically worthwhile" from the point of view of actual necessity, quite apart from the severe problems which would be caused to assuring operational continuity of service whilst such changes were made. Further, for any load equipment - machines, appliances, etc. - that have reactive components (capacitors/inductors), the effects of a frequency change from 50 Hz to 60 Hz on such impedances would not be trivial and would significantly alter their in-circuit behaviour. This means changes would have to be made to the sizes all such reactive components to achieve the same effects at the higher frequency. Doing that would be yet another enormous cost of conversion from 50 Hz to 60 Hz which could not be justified as economically worthwhile.
What voltage and Hz does India use?
Voltage in India is 230V / 50 Hz
Why 50 hz power supply in India?
Supplies are nearly always 50 Hz or 60 Hz. India's choice of 50 Hz probably goes back to the days when India took its technology infrastucture from the UK, so they probably imported the choice of 50 Hz at that time.
What band of freqency does the Photon work?
Photons can have any frequency: 0 Hz (0 eV) to infinite Hz (infinite eV).
What the frequency of a grid does?
50 herzes in INDIA and 60 hz in USA
What is the frequency of ac mains in INDIA?
The standard AC mains in India is 230V/50 Hz .
If 60 hz ac supply used in India?
Yes, in India, the standard alternating current (AC) supply frequency is 50 Hz, not 60 Hz. Devices designed for use with a 60 Hz supply may not operate optimally or safely in India without proper adaptation.
What kind of power outlet is used in India?
230 volt 50 Hz.
What si unit of freqency?
a unit of frquency equall ot one cycle per second which is HERTZ. <HZ>
What is dsadvantages of having 50 Hz supply over 60 Hz supply?
There is no inherent disadvantage of 50 Hz compared with 60 Hz, bearing in mind that systems that run at 50 Hz are designed to run at 50 Hz.
What is the standard electricity service voltage used in India?
In most parts of the world this is 50 Hz, although in the Americas it is typically 60 Hz. Current usage by country or region is given in the list of mains power around the world at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency
Difference between FREQUENCY 50 Hz 60 Hz?
10 Hz 10 Hz
What is 50 hz motor?
It is a motor where the frequency of the AC voltage is 50 cycles per second. In U.S.A. 60 Hz is standard. 50 Hz would be overseas.
