We want to do ongoing testing of an ITE product (here in the US) on 220 
VAC 
     50Hz power to simulate the European environment to make sure our power 
     supply vendor is doing his job.  In this esteemed group's experience, what 
     is best (i.e easiest, cheapest, most reliable) way to set this up.  I have 
     an electrician describing scenarios of a 60Hz electric motor mechanically 
     driving a 50Hz generator.  In this age of high power solid state 
     electronics, I gotta believe there's a better way.   Please keep answers 
     simple as I am only a lowly mechanical engineer (analogies to water 
running 
     through pipes always is always big help to me).  At 120VAC our products 
     pull 6 amps peak at start up and only 3 amps running.  I would never test 
     more than 4 products at a time. 
     
     Thanks in advance for the usually invaluable help that I get from this 
     group.
