Default AC Circuit Problem (voltage - resistor)

the line voltage is 133 to 138 volts.

That line voltage is WAY too high. The life of lightbulbs and appliances
will be reduced, in addition to the solenoid you mention.

The real solution is to contact the company that furnishes the electricity
and get them to come out and lower the voltage coming into the house.
