Abstract: Methods of microgrid communications and connection transitions are provided. The methods include methods of operating recloser and/or switch systems. The methods of operating recloser and/or switch systems include transmitting a communication from a recloser and/or switch system of a microgrid to an inverter of the microgrid to trigger a control state change of the inverter. Related methods of operating inverters are also provided.

Abstract: A Local Distributed Intelligence Node device configured to monitor and control an electric vehicle charger during a charging session of an electric vehicle includes a wireless transceiver and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to receive a signal, via the transceiver, from a Local Circuit Supervisor device associated with an electric power grid providing electric power to the electric vehicle charger, and to throttle the amount of charge current supplied to the electric vehicle by the electric vehicle charger in response to receiving the signal.
