Can you wire your home with both 120v 60Hz and 230v 50Hz electricity?

No, these are two different distribution systems. The North American system uses 60 Hz and the European system uses 50 Hz.

What is the US calculation of 110V 60hz?
Do you mean definition? If so 110V = 110 volts-60hz = 60 hertz. Hertz is the cycles that the electricity runs at. 60hz. is the US standard. Europe is at 50hz.
How can you determine if an electric motor is 50HZ or 60HZ if there is no name plate?
One way would be to hook it up to a supply (by itself, with no load) and measure the speed with a contact tachometer. If your supply is 60Hz, and the motor speed corresponded to one of the standard motor speeds, it would be a pretty safe bet you had a 60Hz motor. If the speed was about 20% faster than a standard speed, the motor is probably a 50Hz motor. Or 20% slower if you were running a 60Hz motor on 50Hz For instance, a 1750 RPM 50Hz motor would spin at about 2100 RPM if you ran it on 60Hz.
Is there anyway to get 120V 60hz from a 100V 50hz power supply?
A motor-generator or a solid state power converter can do this.Motor-generators are an old electromechanical technology. In this case you would use a 240V 50Hz synchronous motor and a 110V 60Hz generator with their shafts connected so the motor turns the generator.Solid state power converters use a high power rectifier to convert the input AC to DC, a precisely tuned oscillator to set the output frequency, and a high power class AB push-pull amplifier powered by the high voltage DC and driven by the oscillator to generate the output voltage.
Can you use a 480V 60hz deep fryer on a 380v 50hz power supply stepped up to 480v 50hz by a transfomer?
It is an extremely expensive way of utilizing the deep fat fryer. You should look into changing the heating coils in the fryer to utilize the new voltage. That said it can be done.
Can supply 660volt 50Hz by 660volt 60Hz?
It depends on the nature of the load. For example, a resistive load (e.g. heating) should be no problem whatsoever. But if the load involves magnetic circuits (i.e. transformers, motors, etc.), there may be a problem with overheating which could damage any insulation.
Hi I'm a barber. can i buy a transformer that can give an output of 120V and at 60HZ in England. Its for my clippers and trimmers. Is there such thing?
You can get a transformer that converts the UK's 230V power to 120V, but you cannot get a transformer that will convert from 50Hz to 60Hz. Often, US equipment can work, except that they will work hotter and less efficiently on the 50Hz power. Consult your clipper and trimmer documentation - you may find that it will work just fine on 50Hz.
Will a 230V 50Hz drain pump of a washing machine work on a 220V 60Hz?
No! Normally not, the recistance in the windings is to hig on 60Hz and the pump motor has not power enough to work propelly. This happened to myself when I connected my Whirpool AWE 7519 to 230V 60Hz. Europian model for 50Hz.
Will a 220v 50hz inverter work on 120v 60hz?
No, 120 v is not enough.
Can you plug a 50hz 230v refrigerator to a 60hz 230v supply?
It is not advisable because the motor would run 20% faster which might produce damaging overpressure in the thermal circuit.
Can you plug a 230V 50Hz bread maker bought in Germany into a 220V 60Hz outlet in Manila Philippines?
no way because frequency cannot change
Can a 230V 50Hz Rice Cooker used in 220V 60Hz circuit?
Most likely, yes. Most devices has been manufactured with an idea that they will be used in areas where the supply power frequency is 50 or 60Hz.
What is the US calculation of 110V 60hz?
Do you mean definition? If so 110V = 110 volts-60hz = 60 hertz. Hertz is the cycles that the electricity runs at. 60hz. is the US standard. Europe is at 50hz.
Can you plug a 220V 60Hz hotplate into a 230V 50Hz outlet?
You can but it would be wise not to. Most 60hz appliances will not work at 50 Hz. <<>> Yes, no problem at all. The frequency does not enter into the equation because the hot plate is a strictly resistive load.
Can i use an American Apple TV in Australia?
No. Australia's electricity supply is 230 volts at 50Hz... america's is 120 volts at 60Hz.
Is majora's mask Pal in 60Hz?
No 50Hz
Is it possible to use a Dryer that has been bought in USA in India. India has a input power supply of 230v 50Hz. Dryer - MaytagPerforma Model PDET910AYW 3 WIRE 60Hz 120-240V 26A 5750 W?
It is important that you should read see the answer to the Related Question shown below: "Can you plug a US 240v 60Hz appliance into a European 230v 50Hz outlet?".No, sorry. Most US dryers have a 240V heater and a 120V timer and motor. While the heater will work fine, you don't have the 120V supply for the timer and motor. Also the timer will run slow on 50hz if it is not solid state (Most dryers still use motorized timers), as well as the drum turning slow, and the airflow being decreased.If you have a sufficiently large voltage converter you can make a neutral for it, but you have no way to know how much current the neutral pulls without testing or cracking it open.You may want to just sell it and buy an Indian dryer.
What is meant by antiflicker in campera 50hz and 60hz?
Antiflicker in cameras refers to a feature that reduces the appearance of flickering lights in photographs or videos. The numbers 50Hz and 60Hz refer to the frequency of alternating current used in different regions. Cameras with antiflicker capabilities can adjust their settings to match the frequency and minimize the impact of flickering lights caused by differences in electricity frequency.
