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

Answer Posted / akhil

If frequency is high then losses are more
as we know that hysterysis loss
ph=k*B^1.6*f and eddy current loss
pe=k*B^2*f^2
so
the transformers produced in India can be used there too
but transformers designd there cannot be used here
