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

Answer Posted / sharat das, mahindra ltd.

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 60Hz 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 60Hz
compare to India. since a cold country they can use
this level but not by India. And also specified for Country By WEAC Roles.
