no, Hertz (Hz) is a measure of frequency, Watts (W) is a measure of power.

No, 50 Hz refers to the frequency of alternating current (AC) electricity, measured in Hertz. Whereas 50W refers to power consumption, measured in watts, which is the rate at which energy is consumed. They are different units used to measure different aspects of electricity.

How do you know if 110v device can be used in 120v outlet?

110V and 120V are essentially the same thing--don't worry about that. 50 Hz vs. 60 Hz is more important, for some devices. North America is 60 Hz; much of the rest of the world is 50 Hz.


What is the frequency of the secondary of a 230 volt step down transformer?

The frequency is dependant upon what electrical grid that you are connecting the transformerto. If you are connected to a 50 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 50 Hz. The same thing with the 60 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 60 Hz.

Does an isolation transformer work from 50 Hz input to 60 Hz output?

Generally speaking, an isolation transformer will work pretty much the same for 50 Hertz as for 60 Hertz. There will be some slight differences, but the frequency is low enough and the the range narrow enough that the transformer will just "do its thing" regardless. Note that the isolation transformer won't change the frequency of the input. An input of 50 Hz or 60 Hz will yield an output of 50 Hz and 60 Hz respectively. No change should be expected.

Why 50 hz power supply in India?

Supplies are nearly always 50 Hz or 60 Hz. India's choice of 50 Hz probably goes back to the days when India took its technology infrastucture from the UK, so they probably imported the choice of 50 Hz at that time.
