60hz verses 50hz

[5306]

a 50hz 400vac generator driven system (loading max 60kw normal 40kw) is being transferred to the states to be used with a 60hz 400vac genearator
are there any benefits/pitfalls of the increased frequency.
i know motor speed will change
thanks

If you have questions, set the new generator for 50 hz. Usually easy to do.
