Abstract

Islanding refers to the situation where a Distributed Energy Resource (DER) remains as the sole power supply for a specific section of a power system, even after the main utility grid has been cut off. Suitable islanding detection is crucial to maintain the stability and dependability of a power distribution system that includes DERs. Islanding detection using easy-to-implement passive techniques exhibits a cost-effective response. The purpose of this study was to examine the causes and effects of islanding that a system can experience and propose a passive islanding detection method that uses ROCOPAD. The effectiveness of the proposed method was assessed using a MATLAB Simulink-based power system integrated with multiple Distributed Generations (DGs). The results showed that the proposed ROCOPAD-based islanding detection provided the best results. Evaluation metrics, including detection accuracy, false operation, and detection time, highlighted the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
