One of the main challenges of integrating distributed generation into the power grid is islanding, which occurs when a disconnected power line is adversely energized by a local distributed generation source. If islanding is not quickly detected, it can present serious safety and hazardous conditions. Conventional passive detection techniques used today are entirely dependent on the parameters of the...
With the increased popularity of distributed generation (DG) in power systems, issues such as unintentional islanding should be efficiently resolved. Islanding condition occurs when part of the electrical power system is disconnected from the rest of the grid and is still energized by a DG unit. Conventional passive islanding detection approaches utilize the power system parameters such as the change...
The connection of generating sources in the distribution systems is on the increase worldwide. If on one hand this practice brings well-known benefits for the system, on the other, there are several institutional barriers that make difficult its feasibility. This way, the Brazilian National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) has developed the so called “Distribution Procedures”, which is a set of rules...
