Analysis of active islanding detection techniques for grid connected inverters systems

An island is a section of the electrical grid that contains producing assets and loads that are separated from the main grid and powered by these generators, such as solar systems, with voltage and frequency maintained at nominal levels. It's worth noting that the concept of islanding is linked to time. When the inverter detects an isolated grid activity for a particular period of time, the inverter is compelled to decouple from the general grid, according to the criteria that dictate the working principle of a photovoltaic (PV) systemThis paper presents research and comparisons of the main islanding detection techniques for single-phase systems based on various structures, as well as a comparison of the improvement of the traditional islanding detection method using three different methods (active frequency drift (AFD), slip mode phase shift (SMS) and Sandia frequency shift (SFS)). Under normal and abnormal operating conditions, a comparison of these three examined improvements was made. Additionally, physical security information management (PSIM) software simulation results are generated to test the performance and effectiveness of the effective technique plan
