FREQUENCY.IF SO WHAT IS THE RANGE AND WHAT WILL BE THE
EFFECT IN PRESENT POWER SYSTEM IF WE CHANGE THE FREQUENCY
AS YOU SUGGEST ?

Answer Posted / karthikeyan

The reason why in our country we are generating and
distributing the power with 50Hz/sec is, when frequency
increases say 60Hz/sec the losses in transmission and
distribution, transformers and active loads will be high.
economically 60Hz/Sec not affordable in our country.
because copper very high in cost.
