Why Power generation in India is at 50Hz while in America
its 60Hz so is there any advantage/Disadvantage of this ??

Answer Posted / mullu

in US the frequency is 60hz and 110v supply. but in india
is about 240v,50hz supply. for a particular load say 100kw
the current will be 0.416A. but in US the same load will
consume about 0.9A. here the thing is the heat produced in
the cable bcoz of the flow of current will be large in US
compare to india. since US is a cold country they can use
this level but not by india.
