Question What are the efeects if I use a 60 Hz power Transformer on 50 Hz System
Answer I have to know the end product.
So far as the transformer itself the heat build up - all other things being equal - may be a little more and it may get a little more saturated causing hysteresis to be more prominent (causing a little more distortion in the output sine waveform).
If the transformer is pushed to its maximum rating this could be a serious matter; if it is running lightly probably not a significant problem.
The issue is more the effect on the equipment at the load. Many equipments can run on either 50Hz or 60Hz with no problem but others must be at the correct line frequency.
Hope this helps, but let me know more about your application.
