minus-squareareyouevenreal@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoIt’s not just about frequency - though that is important for devices that synchronize using the grid. When your frequency is going up because of too much power so will voltage. Think about that for a minute.

minus-squareareyouevenreal@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoNot everything on the grid is a motor. Even if it was you would still need to rebuild the motor to change field windings.

I don’t think you said why?
