Help My AC line voltage is 128V


I have recently tested the line voltage reading out from my AC lines. They read 128V ! Knowing that 128V is almost 10% more than the standard 117V and most components inside the equipments have a 5% tolerance only. Would this unusual high voltage damage my equipments? Even though I have all my stuffs hooked onto a delicated line but when my wife uses the washing machine, the power reading jump slight up and down... This is a power spike at a high 128V... Sounds dangerous to me... I now have a habit of unplugging them everytime I finished and I am getting frustrated at this. Will getting a voltage stabilizer help? PS Audio P600 or the Monster Cable stuff?

Extremely happy with my PS Audio regenerators. Have the PS600 for my integrated, PS500 for the digital front end.
Holds the voltage rock solid.

My P600 powers a 200 watt per channel amp along with two REL Storm III subs and I am known to shake the walls ocassionaly. Medium warm, I would say. Nothing like a Class A amp temperature that's for sure.
