Island detection in distribution systems with distributed generation is typically categorized into remote and local methods, with local methods further subdivided into passive, active, and hybrid techniques. The paper provides an overview of islanding and islanding detection techniques in power systems. The authors describe and analyze various islanding detection techniques for distributed generation.
This paper presents an overview of power system islanding and islanding detection techniques. Islanding detection techniques, for a distribution system with distributed generation (DG), can broadly be divided into remote and local techniques. A remote islanding detection technique is associated with islanding detection on the utility side, whereas a local technique is associated with islanding detection on the DG side. Local techniques can further be divided into passive techniques, active techniques and hybrid techniques. These islanding detection techniques for DG are described and analyzed.
