In India, Electrical power is generated at 50Hz, unlike UK
US and other western countries.

A 60Hz motor should not be used as it may get damaged.

However you can use it with the help of a VFD (variable
frequency drive)

Answer / razif matsaat

in addition to #1 answer, if you're using 60Hz motor on 50Hz, the speed will be rated based on 50Hz and you may loose the designed torque hence require more current to run
