(84) 1-1 el (54) Title: ELECTRICAL NETWORK INSPECTION DEVICES en (57) : An electrical system can include a diagnostic device that generates a first test signal. The electrical system can also t;;;N include multiple energy transfer links coupled to the diagnostic device, where the first test signals flows through a first subset of the C:::: ) energy transfer links. The electrical system can further include a first monitoring device coupled to the first subset of energy transfer 0 ---. links, where the first monitoring device receives the first test signal from the diagnostic device through the first subset of the energy *1 : transfer links. The electrical system can also include a first electrical device coupled to the first monitoring device. The first monitoring 1-1 c;;;;) device can implement a first test procedure based on the first test signal, where the first test procedure helps determine a first condition ei of the first electrical device.
