Abstract | With the increased involvement of Distributed Power Generation Systems (DPGSs) into the conventional power system, the structure has evolved and therefore has brought in various challenges albeit improving flexibility and smartness of the system. This paper addresses modeling one of these challenges where a Simulink model for inverter-based distributed generation (IBDG) active islanding detection technique is introduced. Out of the various types of active islanding detection methods, the modeling of the general electric islanding detection method which uses the positive feedback of the voltage or frequency at the point of common coupling (PCC) for the detection of an island is presented. This methodology is modeled and applied for an IBDG connected to a low voltage distribution network. The simulation results are presented for a 20kW, three-phase IBDG showing that the system is able to detect islanding and cease the current flow from the IBDG even under critical operating condition of a close matching between the power delivered by the inverter and the load demand (zero nondetection zone operation). |
