Its VERY normal in California..at least in the LA area.

U.S. electricity is supplied at 120v, single phase, and 240v, dual
phase, nominal voltages.

Leg A (120v) plus Leg B (120v) = 240v, right? shrug

P.S: The trolls are having a field day with this thread in 4 groups.

There are two trolls: 'dimbulb' with 50 or more nyms, and 'jamie' who
claims to be an engineer.

Yet 245 is quite normal in many Southern California shops.

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"

It all has to do with transformer loading if what the pole climbers
I've talked to have any knowledge of it. I talked to the guy on
the ground while the monkey played in the wires when they replaced the
broken 17kv line to my house a couple years ago. They bump the xfmr a
bit to handle larger loads, so when the load isn't there, your
household voltage can be up to 10v higher. The larger the area the
xfmr covers, the wider the voltage fluctuation will be. They aim for
sub-5% swings, but...

I have a dedicated xfmr on the pole outside. It's putting out 118.8v /
237.5v this morning.
