This article proposes a new passive islanding detection technique for inverter-based distributed generation (DG) in microgrids based on local synchrophasor measurements. The proposed method utilizes the voltage and current phasors measured at the DG connection point (point of connection, PoC). In this paper, the rate of change of voltages and the ratio of the voltage and current magnitudes (VoI index) at the PoC are monitored using micro-phasor measurement units. The developed local measurements based decentralized islanding detection technique is based on the VoI index in order to detect any kind of utility grid frequency fluctuations or oscillations and distinguishing them from islanding condition. The simulation studies confirm that the proposed scheme is accurate, robust, fast, and simple to implement for inverter-based DGs.

Abstract In distributed generation (DG) systems, the rate of change of voltage and the rate of change of frequency are the two most common and widely used simple and low-cost passive islanding detection schemes. Unfortunately, these passive islanding detection schemes find limitation for detecting the islandings that cause very small power imbalance. In this paper, an improved passive islanding detection scheme is proposed by using the two newly derived indices from the sequence components of the current signal with the conventional voltage and frequency parameters. The performance of the proposed scheme is tested for numerous islanding and non-islanding cases generated on IEEE Std 399–1997 and IEC microgrid model distribution system integrated with both inverter-interfaced and synchronous DGs through PSCAD/EMTDC. The obtained results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
