Typical Wall Voltage - US

Wow, 129v?

It was back up around 130-131 again last night.
They won't even consider doing anything about it unless it's routinely more than 132V (over 10% high).

What is the current source in Tennessee?

Nuclear?

In the Northwest we mainly depend on hydro power.

Nashville Electric Service gets their power from TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) which is about 1/3 coal fired, 1/3 nuclear and the balance being hydro, gas, a small bit of wind and about 10% purchased from outside the TVA network.
Interestingly, TVA still produces weapons grade nuclear byproducts.

Although they don't consider it a renewable power source because they will never build another dam here!

The tree huggers have all but destroyed the hydro power resource here to the extent of demolishing some dams already, to allow some fish to swim upstream.

Funny, I thought that was what fish ladders were for.....

TVA owns a lot of hydro plants but just a few nuclear.
Apparently nuclear is a lot more efficient than water.

Yes but I wish they would have thought about what to do with the nuclear waste product (spent rods) before they started using the reactors around the world.

Same as Martin here. It spikes over 125 though from what the conditioner tells me.

Hey does your power conditioner give you a peak since reset, over some recent time interval, or some more detailed record vs. time?

Digital readout constantly updates.

Sorry I haven't been around much. Trying to do a year of production in a month! Tired! My eyes aaah boinin'!

Just measured 122V in Kitchener, Ontario

They have. Harness tau particles to half life it all into gold. That's why the colliders have all been made IMHO.

[Structo]

Seriously?

Like alchemy?

There's gold in them thar coils!

As in the Higgs boson.

127, fairly steady. I use a PS Audio P-1000 in my listening room to get steady clean blanced power.

ok - seattle wa usa - 7:40 pm 9-12-12

119 outlet
124 (variac set to 120)
117 (variac at 120 then isolation transformer)

next test: hummx and power regulator

124-129 in DC 'burbs. RG Keen's got a project for that: http://geofex.com/Article_Folders/vintvolt/vintvolt.htm
