In Reply to: AC wall voltage 4am this morning- 137.5 !!@ posted by Story on September 5, 2018 at 03:57:46:
Many years ago my household voltage varied between 105v and 135v.
When a tech from the power company showed up with his companies meter
to test the voltage to make sure I wasn't mistaken.
He took one look at my test equipment,
Tektronix 456 scope,
Fluke meter,
Brickman meter
and a Simpson meter.
He put his meter away saying that my test equipment
was better than his.
Off he went and I didn't see him for hours.
He returned much later that day telling me he found the problem.
It was a bad capacitor many miles from my home and had it replaced.
My wilding varying voltages were replaced with a nice steady voltage again.
Maybe you have the same problem.
