why india use 220v instead of 110v | Why does India use 230 V 50HZ while USA use 120V 60HZ [हिंदी]

Almost the whole of the world uses a frequency of 50Hz and a voltage of 220-240(higher voltages for better efficiency in transmission). The exception, where 60Hz is used (with a voltage of 110-120), is the Americas (North and South) and the Caribbean (and parts of Japan and Korea).
IT STARTS FROM THE BEGINNING OF ELECTRICITY-
Early in the history or electricity, Thomas Edison's General Electric
company was distributing DC electricity at 110 volts in the United States.
Then Nikola Tesla devised a system of three-phase AC electricity at 240 volts. Three-phase meant that three alternating currents slightly out of phase were combined in order to even out the great variations in voltage occurring in AC electricity. He had calculated that 60 cycles per second or 60Hz was the most effective frequency.
Tesla later compromised to reduce the voltage to 120 volts for safety reasons.
With the backing of the Westinghouse Company, Tesla's AC system
became the standard in the United States.
Westinghouse chose 60 Hz because the arc light carbons(arc lamp) that were popular at that time worked better at 60 Hz than at 50 Hz.
110v vs 220v
Europe goes to 50Hz and 230V
Meanwhile, the German company AEG started generating electricity and became a virtual monopoly in Europe.
They decided to use 50Hz instead of 60Hz to better fit their metric standards, but they stayed with 120V.
Europe stayed at 120V AC until the 1950s, just after World War II.
They then switched over to 220V for better efficiency in
electrical transmission. Great Britain not only switched to 220V, but
they also changed from 60Hz to 50Hz to follow the European lead.
Since many people did not yet have electrical appliances in Europe after the
war, the change-over was not that expensive for them.
U.S. stays at 120V, 60Hz
The United States also considered converting to 220V for home use but felt it would be too costly, due to all the 120V electrical appliances people had.
A compromise was made in the U.S. in that 240V would come into the house where it would be split to 120V to power most appliances.
Certain household appliances such as the electric stove and electric clothes dryer would be powered at 240V.
India got 50Hz, because it was colonized by England, which when they developed their electrical systems, choose 50 Hz.
From technical point of view operating 50 Hz versus 60 Hz would not make much difference but, to achieve it, either the prime movers - for example steam turbines, gas turbines and diesel engines would need to be able to tolerate a 20% increase in speed or the alternators they drive which produce the electricity would need to be completely rebuilt with extra poles and windings so that they could continue to run at the same rotational speed.
The costs of doing such re-engineering would be enormous and could not be justified as "economically worthwhile" from the point of view of actual necessity.

[@devdattapednekar63]

if by using 220 volt you require thicker wires, it will be costlier? then why is it used?

Devdatta thora physics pad le akal ayegi....😂
Voltage and Ampere both are Different....

[@BakulchandraBhowmik-xv2cr]

Actually it's not much costlier . You see current is transmitted in more 4000v . It's the transformer what lowers it to 220v . And we just need to double the wires only our localities . It'll be a little costlier but much safer for us , we are gonna die due to current anymore . That's why Americans use it . They aren't dumb all the best engineers around the globe including India lives there . Indians due to lack of knowledge prioritized money and didn't notice about safety .

Edison stealed Tesla idea

[@Global-uj7oh]

110 voltages good Hey.

[@vishalsg]

No. Current zyada dangerous hota h voltage se.

[@BakulchandraBhowmik-xv2cr]

​@@vishalsg isn't voltage directly proportional to current ?

[@NABEELAZIZ]

@@BakulchandraBhowmik-xv2cr Current is indirectly proportional to Voltage
