1. A supervisory system comprising:

  • a sensing circuit configured to dynamically determine the available load capacity of an AC power supply circuit downstream of a substation of a high-voltage power transmission and distribution grid, the AC power supply circuit having a limited capacity for supplying power to one or more electrical loads;

    a reporting circuit configured to report the dynamically available load capacity of the AC power supply circuit;

    a controller configured to respond to the reported dynamically available load capacity of the AC power supply circuit; and

    an input/output communication interface communicatively linking the controller with one or more electrical loads, potential electrical loads, and/or other devices on the AC power supply circuit;

    wherein the reporting circuit is configured to send information to a first load or device in a first time period, wait for a second time period, and then send information to a second load or device in a third time period.
