RE: thoughts on AC voltage fluctuations?

some years ago .....

I visted a local power station with a group on an organised tour ...in the control room there was a chap who was in charge ...I looked at the main output frequecy dial it was running at around 45hz our norm is supposed to be 50 hz..when asked the chap in charge said nobody would notice ..and it saved them several million pound over life time of the coal fired power station ....

the moral is they can get away with pretty much what they like !
