If you have not already done so, I would suggest posting your
question on the emc-pstc listserver, where there are many more
qualified people.
Form my power supply days (years ago) here are some thoughts:
1. If your load is resistive, e.g. a hair dryer, it will make
little diffewrence.
2. If your load is inductive/capacitive, e.g. a motor, it may
overheat when run at 20% higher frequency, i.e. higher speed.
3. If the unit uses a switched mode power supply, it may not
perform properly at the higher freq.

Hi! Happy New Year!
May I pls. know what's the difference between a 60Hz And a 50 Hz AC.
What will happen or the consequences if I use a an appliance rated
for 50 Hz to a 60 Hz AC power supply.
