It's called a 'volts per hertz' system, a design used in pretty much all the non-inverter small gensets. Spin it at the correct speed (1800 for a four pole alternator, 3600 for a two) and you get 60Hz. Consequently, engine speed government is essential. Overspeed will result in overvoltage, which will toast equipment if it's much over, and over frequency which will help toas electric motors. Baaad juju all around.
