House AC Line Variance

A question about AC...

My measured AC line voltage runs from 123 to 130 VAC. Lowest in the evening and highest in the morning. I assume this is due to load in the neighborhood. It really affects the bias on my tube integrated.

So is this a normal range (seems high) and is that big of fluctuation?

Is this something that can be "controlled" at the house or is this the power company?

Thanks for any info.

I have 240V AC and it varies between 220 and 255!
I bought a Thor PS10 power station and that unit shows input AC voltatage and output AC voltage on it's display. Now no matter what the input voltage, it always provides a stable 240V output. This has done the trick for me, and given me piece of mind too...maybe you could consider a similar solution.
