Outlets typically have a voltage range of 156 to 160 volts due to variations in the electrical supply system and the design of electrical equipment. In many regions, the standard voltage for residential outlets is around 120 volts, but fluctuations can occur due to factors like load changes, distance from Transformers, and variations in local utility supply. Additionally, some systems may be designed to operate at higher voltages for efficiency, especially in industrial or commercial settings. If outlets consistently show voltages in this range, it may indicate an issue with the electrical system that should be investigated by a professional.
