I have the same problem, voltage shooting up to 130 on occasion. To correct it I purchased an APC battery back-up unit. You can set the voltage parameters so that if the incoming voltage exceeds the limits (up or down) it will sound an alarm and go to battery back-up. Hasn't failed me yet.
How much AC is too much.
Has anyone had any issues with high AC levels at home? I am receiving 123 to 126 volts at my home at times. What level is too much and could cause damage to equipment?
I heard that a lot of the power companies are no longer regulating the outside grid like they use to do. To save money they are not regulating the voltage level at some of the transformers. If you live near a transformer that is not regulated you could have issues.
Any recommendations on the best way to correct incomming voltage ... Variac , AC regenerator (PS Audio) ?
