Nominal ( Means Ideal or what we tell you it should be )120 volts AC
Any voltage at or over 105 volts will make everything operate normally
Expect to see 110 volts to 117 volts in your home depending on what you are running.
A standard two prong outlet in the US carries 110 volts. Actual voltage in your area may vary from below 100 to 140 volts, but these extremes are unusual. Most of the rest of the Americas (North and South) uses the same standard. In Europe, the standard voltage in a "two prong outlet" is 220 to 240 volts. In the US, this voltage is reserved almost exclusively for use by stoves and ovens in the home.
A 220 oulet line carries two 110 vold lines and a ground wire. The outlet is shaped differently than the standard household (110) outlet, usually having at least one (plug-in) prong 90 deg to the other, sometines two of the prongs. This type is usually found in a utility room for dryers, most of which use 220 power.
The highest voltage for lighting in a home in the US is typically 120 volts. This is the standard voltage used for residential lighting fixtures.
There is no correct voltage between he prongs on a 120 volt outlet. The voltage is constantly changing. It depends on the time of day and what your home demand load is. The utility company is mandated to keep the voltage between plus or minus 10%. This means from the base voltage of 120 volts it could be as high as 132 volts and as low as 108 volts. These voltages are a major swing differential and very seldom seen. The voltage generally reads about 115 to 125 volts.
I have never seen a 100 Volt rated outlet. Usually outlets would be rated for 110 to 120 volts for residential use, or maybe 150 volts. The rating is separate from what voltage the outlet is providing. If your outlet is supplying 100 volts, as measured by an accurate voltmeter, you have some problem in your wiring or a faulty outlet. If there is only 100 volts at the outlet get an electrician to diagnose the problem if you are not completely familiar with home wiring. In general you should never use an outlet that has a voltage or current rating less that the device will consume.
No, it will cause the bulb to blow. A 12 volt light is DC voltage and your home outlet is AC voltage.

A voltage source is anything that provides a voltage; for example a cell or battery, or an electrical outlet in your home.
Get a 120 volt ac to 12volt dc power supply. you plug them into a house outlet and it converts120 house voltage to 12 volt dc , some have regulators on them and you can turn the dc voltage up and down on them. make sure you set your device to the proper voltage before turning on.
When choosing the best electrical outlet for your home, consider features such as the outlet type (standard, GFCI, AFCI), voltage compatibility, number of outlets, USB ports, tamper resistance, and surge protection. It's important to ensure the outlet meets safety standards and is suitable for the intended use.

check starting capacitors. Check voltage supply with a voltmenter from outlet to compressor.

To safely change an outlet in your home, first turn off the power to the outlet at the circuit breaker. Use a voltage tester to ensure the power is off. Remove the cover plate and unscrew the outlet from the electrical box. Disconnect the wires from the old outlet and connect them to the new outlet, following the manufacturer's instructions. Secure the new outlet in place and replace the cover plate. Turn the power back on and test the outlet to ensure it is working properly.
In the United States, 110-120/240 VAC is the standard.
