August 9, 20169 yr Wasn't it the Geordy bloke William Armstrong (Engineer who made the 100 Ton Gun) back in the 1800s who had the first electric light powered house in UK?

If one believe in pyramid power, the sink drains opposite – a first hand source told me that the water drains the opposite way out from the Glastonbury pyramid stage, they have a drain if case rainwater gets to the stage (not joking, my source is dead serious about pyramids and Glastonbury, and suggested the pyramid-stage to increase sound quality from pyramid power) – so logically thinking, how should a turntable behave under a pyramid..? Believe you started experimental questions yourself.
August 24, 20169 yr 220 and 240 are the same voltages . It used to be 220 in mainland europe also , but voltages are fluctuating all the time . If a lot is demanded, voltage will drop , as probably you have witnessed more then 1 time in the past . Is they up the voltage a bit , like it is the case , then the voltage drops are not witnessed as often as they do now . The voltage going up is better controled since you ( elec company ) only put in what is out of the net . So 240V has more room for instant high demands of electricity . The 50 or 60 Hz thing , as far as i heard ; is because the transfo transfers it . Put a transfo on 220/50 to make 110V and you will get 60 Hz out of it ( magnetic flux etc ) .

None of the transformers I've ever come across change the frequency. "I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"
