what will happen if a 115v 60hz synchro is given a supply of 115v 400hz and vice versa —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.88.157.200 (talk • contribs)
- If you power the device at too low a frequency, it will overheat, because it doesn't have enough reactance. If you power it at too high a frequency, it will work, but at a lower power level. --John Nagle (talk) 17:27, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
