Active frequency drift islanding detection method is one of most widely used in the distributed generator islanding detection. Now domestic researches of islanding detection have not been done deep researched about the reason why islanding detection method will become invalid. Therefore, the paper analyses the performances of the frequency drift islanding method from load phase frequency characteristic and algorithm phase frequency characteristic, which are the major factors affecting the effectiveness of islanding detection method. At last, this paper proved the analysis results with MATLAB.

This paper proposes an improved active frequency drift (AFD) islanding detection method of a three-phase inverter. Different than the existing single-phase AFD method, in the three-phase system, the disturbance is added to the phase angle, which takes part in coordinate transformation calculations. Thus, the frequency drift of the three-phase reference current can be realized by the disturbance of the phase angle. It is unnecessary to add frequency drift to each phase respectively with the proposed method, which can simplify the control system. Furthermore, the non-detection zone can be eliminated by updating certain parameters; therefore, the detection method is sensitive. In this paper, the application of the proposed method in a digital control system is discussed in detail. The non-detection zone is analyzed, and an elimination method is proposed. Finally, the simulation and experimental results are given to verify the theoretical analysis.

Islanding detection of Distributed Generation (DG) is considered as one of the most important aspects when interconnecting DGs to the distribution system. It was the crucial problem in distributed generation. This detection phenomenon having a great importance. These detection methods are divided into active and passive islanding detection. These two methods are based on changing in parameters such as frequency, voltage and current harmonics. But these methods have some challenges such as reduction in power quality and large Non Detection Zone (NDZ). In this paper, the proposed method is change of Total harmonic distortion (THD) will be studied for islanding detection diagnosis. The studied system was considered by following the standard IEEE-1547 and UL-1741.The system was simulated using MATLAB/ SIMULINK.

This paper puts forward a novel islanding detection method based on q-axis disturbance signal injection. This method, by introducing q-axis disturbance signal injection, makes the RLC load generate frequency offset to detect the island in the case that the power network is disconnected due to certain fault.The introduced q-axis disturbance signal injection method is connected with reactive power variation and frequency variation whose values are close to zero when photovoltaic system is operated in grid-connected mode. Therefore, the suggested method has the advantage of tiny harmonic distortion and good power quality. The simulation results based on the MATLAB/Simulink software show that the novel islanding detection method can detect the island in 1 second and has little effects on the system under the condition of the set parameters.
