I have been reading and it came to my attention that it is more effective to generate electricity at a 60Hz cycle that it is at a 50Hz cycle. Yet only a minority of countries generate electricity using 60Hz. Why is it most countries generate their electricity at a 50Hz cycle when it is known that 50 Hz is less efficient that 60 Hz, results in greater losses and is more expensive? Other than to comply with the English metric system is there any real reason for doing this?
Please provide reference where possible so i can do additional readings. Thanks
