I have connected my Arduino board with 12 v 1 A adaptor. When I measure the current with multimeter the 5v pin gives 8 v output.
Again I connected to 9v adapter the output is 6.3v. I think there is a problem with the voyage regulator. How can I get 5v output constantly.
Any ideas for this guy's pls help me I am in between a project.
Sounds like you have a bad regulator. You can replace it. Or use an offboard regulator and connect to 5V on the power header.
12V DC, or 12V AC?

12V DC, or 12V AC?
You scared me in the moment!
But this can't be. The 12 AC adapter doesn't exist as a product, I think.

12V AC mains adapters exist. Think again.

What else is connected to your Uno?
To what did you connect it? Barrel, Vin?
TheMemberFormerlyKnownAsAWOL:
Guess what happened if the OP had mistakenly connected 12 AC to the board?
But I think that he didn't connect it, I think he bought the DC one and there is probably a problem with the Arduino power adapter.
