The awareness concerning the grid connected Photovoltaic (PV) has become vital and a major concern nowadays. Islanding detection is one of the most dominant challenges for distributed generation system connected to the utility grid. In addition, islanding has not been a preferable option as it may pose safety hazard and may cause damage to power generation and power supply facilities as a result of unsynchronized re-closer. Therefore, the islanding detection techniques are needed to ensure safe and reliable system operation. One of the established islanding prevention methods is the Slip Mode Frequency Shift (SMS) islanding method, which has numerous advantages over the other techniques. This paper investigates the active islanding detection methods and specifically focused on the SMS islanding method. The results show that the SMS islanding method successfully detected an unintentional fault and managed to isolate the system within the prescribed time range.

In this paper an effective hybrid FAT-SGO approach is proposed for islanding detection of distributed generation (DG) system. The proposed approach is the joint implementation of Feedback Artificial Tree (FAT) and Shell Game Optimization (SGO) named as FAT-SGO technique. Reducing the non-detection zone (NDZ) as near as possible and keep the output power quality unmovable is main contribution of this paper. Furthermore, this method solves the issue of establishing detection thresholds inherent in existing methods. The proposed strategy uses the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) in DG destination location is utilized as input sets of FAT system for intelligent islanding detection. Here, FAT is trained by SGO, which extracts the different intrinsic characteristics among islanding and grid disturbance. With the extracted characteristics, the FAT method is used for classifying the disturbances in islanding and grid. For authenticating the feasibility of this strategy is authorized through various conditions and different conditions of load, switching operation, and network. The simulation of the proposal is done in MATLAB / SIMULINK and the performance in islanding and non-islanding events was studied. Statistic analysis of proposed and existing methods of mean, median and standard deviation is analyzed. DG performance is assessed by comparative analysis with current techniques.
