1. A method for monitoring power devices, the method comprising:
- providing a plurality of power devices that are connected in a loop to a power grid line, the loop comprising a plurality of power lines;
identifying a disturbance within the plurality of power devices;
determining an impact of the identified disturbance on the plurality of power lines; and
adjusting, based at least in part on the determined impact, a power output of one or more of the plurality of power devices.

Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring power devices that are connecting in a loop to a main power line are provided. A plurality of power devices that are connected in a loop to a power grid line may be provided. The loop may include a plurality of power lines. A disturbance within the plurality of power devices may be identified, and an impact of the identified disturbance on the plurality of power lines may be determined. A power output of one or more of the plurality of power devices may be adjusted based at least in part on the determined impact.
