I can understand 240 or even at max 260, but 300? Such a case would end up for compensation in court.

Hi Sayzer,
Probably depends upon how you measure it. If you use an a/c voltmeter then it is calibrated in RMS and gives accurate results. If he is using a D/C voltmeter and a diode, then he is seeing peak voltage - diode drop, and will see an inaccurately high value.
