Unintentional islanding is a situation in which local DG systems continue to supply power to the local loads at a sustained voltage and frequency while the main EPS is de-energized unknowingly. • Islanding operation could be fatally harmful to the line workers and power system facilities. • IEEE Std 1547™-2003 and IEEE Std 929-2000 require that islanded DG systems be shut down within a specified time. • Interconnection of Distributed Power Generators with Power System Fig. 1 Interconnection of DG systems with the power system
Review of Anti-Islanding Techniques • Two types of techniques for anti-islanding purpose • Remote techniques: normally used on the utility site. Most of them are based on the communication between utilities and DG units • Power Line Carrier Communication (PLCC) • Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Network (SCADA) • Local techniques: used on the DG site. They are based on the information available on the DG site. Two types of local techniques • Passive techniques: Detect abnormalities related to the islanding conditions • Traditional Over/Under Voltage and Over/Under Frequency Protection (OVP/UVP & OFP/UFP) • Rate of Change of Power Output (ROCOP) as an index of islanding • Rate of Change of Frequency (ROCOF) as an index of islanding • Rate of Change of Frequency over Power Change (ROCOFOP) as an index of islanding
Phase Jump Detection (PJD) • Voltage Harmonics Detection (HD) • Active Techniques: introduce disturbance to the DG output for the islanding detection • The Reactive Power Export Error Detection (RPEED) • Impedance Measurement (IM) • Phase Shift (or Frequency Shift) techniques for inverter-based DG systems • Active Frequency Drift (AFD) • Active Frequency Drift with Positive Feedback (AFDPF) • Slip-Mode Frequency Shift (SMS) • Automatic Phase Shift (APS)
General Comparison of Anti-islanding Techniques • Remote Techniques: • Usually do not have non-detection zone (NDZ) • Do not degrade the quality of the generating power of the DG • Effective in multi-DG systems But • too expensive to implement • Complicated communication techniques in multi-DG systems • Local Techniques: • Passive Techniques: • Do not degrade the quality of the power generation of the DG • Inexpensive and easy to implement But • Have relatively large non-detection zone (NDZ) • Effectiveness may be impaired in multi-DG systems • Active Techniques • Relatively small non-detection zone (NDZ) • Inexpensive and easy to implement But • may degrade the quality of the output power and the stability of the DG

Hybrid Anti-Islanding Algorithms • A hybrid of passive and active algorithms is to use passive islanding indicators such as PPSD and covariance to activate the active anti-islanding techniques such as ALPS and ARPS to move the frequency into the UFP/OFP trip window. The goal of this hybrid anti-islanding algorithm is to robustly trip the islanding operation while maintain a zero or the least disturbance in grid-connected operation.

Conclusion • A hidden gene concept is introduced in islanding detection • Proportional power spectral density of voltage periods can be used as a distinct islanding indicator • The effectiveness of the covariance islanding indicator is proved • ALPS and ARPS active anti-islanding algorithms are proposed • Hybrid of passive and active anti-islanding techniques can provide a way to robustly trip the islanding operation while maintain a zero or the least disturbance in grid-connected operation.
