Why is it that North America uses 60 hz frequency while
Europe uses 50 hz?
Answer Posted / dinesh lokhande
Basically frequeny of supply depends upon generated voltage
frequency which is guided by universal formula
N=(120*F)/P
Where;
N = Synchronous speed of Generator
F = Frequency
P = No of poles of generator
Frequeny in North America is 60 hz because designed
generators are for 60 hz as per above formula and vice
versa for Europe.
Hope this is clear.
