What should a typical house voltage read/be?


My house voltage reads 123volts from a voltage meter(Fluke 87 True RMS Multimeter). I have my equipt.(Yamaha DSP-A1GL & Technics DVD-a10 Player) running through a Monster Cable HTS-3500 power center. The analog meter reads in at 123 volts as well. Is this normal? I thought a typical house voltage was 110v.

I have a voltage meter on my line (I live in Washington DC) continuously and it always reads between about 116v and 119v. This, and the responses above, makes me wonder about those manufacturers who sell the types of PLC's claimed to correct for the supposedly wild fluctuations in AC line voltage. Is anybody actually experiencing this problem out there? Is this sort of "correction" being sold for any legitimate reason?
