When I triple checked my wiring, no errors; measuring at the wall (July in Houston), my voltage was 138/0
138Vac is way too high. If the mains voltage is that high you should be replacing burned out incandescent light bulbs quite regularly.
If the power utility transformer that is feeding your home is a single phase, split phase xfmr, that means L1 hot to L2 hot lines measure 276Vac. (138V - 0V - 138V ..... 138/276Vac.)
Try another volt meter!! If the readings are the same contact your utility power provider......
Quick test of wiring showed I was getting 70/70 off the secondaries!
140Vac line to line is way too high.
126Vac RMS should be the max....
I personally would not want more than 124Vac max.
