In this paper, among the active islanding detection techniques, the modified active frequency drift method was analyzed, which is relatively easy to apply to the single-phase grid-connected PV PCS. The existing designs for turbulences in these applications were empirically conducted, and do not have sufficient reliability and performance. Therefore, three application forms of the modified active frequency drift technique were modeled, based on which the proper magnitude of turbulence, which is the frequency acceleration component, was calculated. Using the results, the magnitude of and injection method for turbulence for ensuring the islanding detection performance and improving the output power quality were proposed, and they were verified via simulations and experiment to prove that the reliable islanding detection technique can be developed merely by measuring the basic output power quality, without the need for expensive islanding simulation equipment.

The islanding detection and prevention function in the important performance of the grid-connected inverter is the essential details which should be considered for worker's safety to maintain the system. This paper tries to suggest the active frequency shake islanding detection technique in the grid-connected PV generation system using sunlight. The existing active frequency drift method algorithm is described to suggest active frequency shake method algorithm. And, the algorithm which can reduce the non-detection zone, improve THD, and improve the detection speed in comparison with the existing algorithm is suggested. And we applied the proposed algorithm to the 3kW grid-connected photovoltaic inverter generation and verified the feasibility of the technique through the simulation and experiments.
