  • Why the standard frequency is either 50hz or 60hz ? (Being 50hz in Britain, India and many other countries whereas it is 60Hz in America) Why not any other value?

    In NZ we use 440v 50 htz 3 phase street distribution allowing 10% volt drop 5% to your point of supply/ boundary 2.5 % to your MEN board and 2.5% to point of use. Nominally (400-40)/square root of 3. In my house the voltage must of the time is around 236Ac . The cycles are counted each day and adjusted to always average exactly 50 Hz, or 50 x 3600 x 24 cycles per day so syncronis clocks dont need to be adjusted ever.

      Each house gets one phase in towns and 1 or2 or 3 phases in country rural areas.

    Thank you for this video, Electrical properties where never explained like this back in school especially in Physiscs class. We also never discussed Ohms law nor how toread a diagrams symbols. They were considered technical vocation training and we were only taught entry general theory and properties. Great work and please post more videos like this!

    So to make the frequency stable, in power station, they need a sensor to track the rotation of the turbine to make sure it always rotate in 3000 or 3600rpm no matter when the power demands high or low, thus the frequency not changing.

      @@jordanhowell3870prior to the 1920s, the United States had no voltage or frequency standards, and the supply was dependent on whatever the relative power station was producing. The country shored this up when they settled on the 240/120v split phase system we use today.

    The percentage of 50 Hz is over half (50%) of the planet, thus 60 Hz is a small minority, the biggest area is North and Meso America. Then also in spotted areas in the world. YAY! WE WIN us 50 Hz countries (mine being Switzerland).

      @letslearnelectricalenginee4671  2 года назад

      It completely depends upon the type of circuit u have connected i.e. inductive or capacitive..
      Because as we know the inductive reactance is directly proportional to frequency whereas the capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to frequency
      Therefore accordingly the reactance ehich means the impedance changes which effects the current through the circuit and hence the voltage

    Please don't assume your viewers will know everything. Take a few seconds to explain basic concepts. I am a non engineer trying to understand what the frequency means. I do not know the formula for frequency and why P =2. If you had taken a few second to explain. the entire video would be a lot more useful to a layperson.

      @@letslearnelectricalenginee4671 It's a reference to TV refresh rates which is also the cap of their max frames per second. Typical TV's refresh at 60 hz, and have a max fps at 60. Modern Digital TV's don't care if the power supply is 50hz or 60hz, so the 50 hz vs 60hz power problem doesn't matter for them and has nothing to do with today's TV's, but it did matter for old cathode ray tube TV's. and US CRT TV's ran at 60 fps, and Europe CRT TV's ran at 50 FPS.
