[Amps] Amps Digest, Vol 168, Issue 55

[Gary Smith]

I would first talk to my local electric utility and ask them why you 
have 257 Vac in your house. Other may comment, I do believe that number 
is good way to let the smoke out of a lot of your household electrical 
goods.

Fwiw, my house 220 voltage is 242 Vac.
