Islanding Detection Based on High Frequency Injection for Multi Inverter Microgrid
ABSTRACT
Islanding detection is one of the indispensable protection detections for grid-connected inverters. The detection of islanding is the key factor that should be considered in the analysis of grid-connection security. The non-detection zone is the performance index of anti-islanding plan. According to the phase feature, quantitative analyses of the non-detection zone of several frequency disturbance schemes are conducted under several different coordinate systems by increasing disturbance, namely injecting third harmonic to the modulating wave that produces inverter drive signal and detects the voltage value and the total harmonic distortion of the power grid. The active current all-disturbance islanding detection scheme has been chosen as the initiative scheme of anti-islanding detection to complete the parameter design and simulation. According to the experimental result, this method is feasible to detect the island of microgrid. In this paper, the simulation model of islanding detection of microgrid is established through MATLAB/SIMULINK, and the simulation analysis of islanding phenomenon after the injection of third harmonic wave is conducted. The simulation result verifies the validity and availability of the islanding detection method.
