“I sent this dryer as a gift to a friend in Europe and didn't realize that this dryer operates on 60Hz where as Europe operates on 50Hz. If they plug this into a 240V/30A/"50Hz" electrical system, would the dryer motor slow down or it would blow out?”

If the LG DLEX4000B dryer is plugged into a 240V/30A/50Hz electrical system, the motor may slow down and the dryer may not function properly. The motor is designed to operate at 60Hz, and a 50Hz electrical system may not provide enough power to operate the motor at full capacity. Additionally, using the dryer on a 50Hz electrical system may cause other electrical parts in the system to malfunction or fail. It is not recommended to use the dryer on a 50Hz electrical system, and it may be necessary to purchase a new dryer that is compatible with the electrical system in Europe.
