Explain to me then how to get 50 hertz out of a 2 pole alternator.

Sorry got it! 3000 rpm divided by 60 seconds comes to 50 so spinning at 3000 would produce 50 hertz

Yeah penny's dropped, cheers for being so helpful, I was nearly there one of you could have put me right in one sentence, most people would not bother to understand how things work but I like to know, don't see why other members on here have to be so bitchy.

I think it's great that you want to understand this stuff, as most electricians not from an industrial background have never even connected a motor, and they think "poles" are the guys trying to take their work.
This thread wasn't really bitchy at all tbh.... Now, if you'd asked what size MCB for 1.0mm cable, THEN you would have seen bitchy
