Techniques for identifying at-risk low-voltage grid assets are described. At-risk transformers (and, in some examples) other devices, are identified if overloaded and actively providing power for electric vehicle (EV) charging. EV charging devices and/or EVs may be enrolled in a program wherein techniques are employed to reduce over-loading events at the at-risk devices. The techniques can involve EV charging management to reduce transformer overload. The techniques for detecting at-risk devices and enrolling EV-charging devices and/or other high-wattage devices can be used to protect transformers, secondary feeders, medium voltage lines, and substations.
