That's really high. Places I've lived and worked in the last 30 years
come in pretty close at 120V. I don't know if it would really damage
anything, other than making your lights brighter and shorter lived.
Mine runs a pretty constant 119 - 121 on 200A service in a 10 year old
house. BTW, there was talk a few months ago about TED meters. I've now
had one for a couple months. Bother me off line if curious.
