why we can't use more then 50 hz in india ? Is it possible ?

Answer Posted / p.k.ghosh

50 Hz frequency is the britis system and every component is
manufacturing since that time it self to work by this
frequency.
We know that Ns=120f/P or f=Ns*P/120, P=2,4,6,8 etc. & Ns
we can adjust by adjusting the speed of Engine which
coupled with alternator so that f comes to 60 or other
frequency.Hence it is possible to generate the frequeny
other than 50 Hz.
Now if f = 60 or others, then loss will be vary
accordingly, insulation / dielectric loss,dimension of the
all equipment, all machines which is using for manufacture
of electrical component has to change. In other words all
the existing M/Cs has to modified from root it self , which
is not possible for a single day. Hence excisting m/cs are
using at 50Hz.
