I bought a wall plug volt meter to monitor voltage yesterday. I noticed that it's reading 120v in the front bedroom/bath until I turned on the front A/C then it drops to 117. My wife was using the hair dryer with that A/C on and it dropped to 109v! I turned the Front A/C off while she used it and it only went up to 111v. My understanding is you want to be between 114v and 126v, does this fluctuation for only short periods of time (like using a hair dryer) cause a problem? Obviously hair dryers are a big voltage draw and I'm sure space heaters would be also.
