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

Answer Posted / vineeth

In my point of view,it may be due to the construction and
speed of the generator.We know that "f=NP/120".According to
this equation frequency is directly propotional to the
product of speed and the number of poles.For example,
speed,N=1500rpm and number of poles,P=4,then the
frequency,f=50Hz.If the speed,N=1800rpm,then the
frequency,f=60Hz.
