This study proposes a novel islanding detection method for distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems with multi-inverters based on a combination of the power line carrier communication and Sandia frequency shift islanding detection methods. A parameter design method is provided for the novel scheme. On the basis of the designed parameters, the effect of frequency measurement errors and grid line impedance on the islanding detection performance of PV systems is analyzed. Experimental results show that the theoretical analysis is correct and that the novel method with the designed parameters has little effect on the power quality of the inverter output current. Non-detection zones are not observed, and a high degree of reliability is achieved. Moreover, the proposed islanding detection method is suitable for distributed PV systems with multi-inverters.

As photovoltaic(PV) power generation systems become more common, it will be necessary to investigate islanding detection method for PV systems. Islanding of PV systems can cause a variety of problems and must be prevented. However, if the real and reactive powers of the load and PV system are closely matched, islanding detection by passive methods becomes difficult. Also, most active methods lose effectiveness when there are several PV systems feeding the same island. The active frequency drift positive feedback method(AFDPF) enables islanding detection by forcing the frequency of the voltage in the island to drift up or down. In this paper the research for the minimum value of chopping fraction gain applied digital phase-locked-loop (DPLL) to AFDPF considering output power quality and islanding prevention performance are performed by simulation and experiment according to IEEE Std 929-2000 islanding test.

Many anti-islanding methods have been developed and tested in pratice. Generally, it seems to be possible to include effective and reliable anti-islanding methods in the PV inverter However, it is difficult to detect islanding phenomenon in the case of multiple systems in the same distribution line. In this paper, the islanding possibility of distributed PV generation system is analyzed and discussed to detect islanding phenomenon.

Islanding phenomenon of photovoltaic system is undesirable because it leads to a safety hazard to utility service personnel and may cause damage to power generation and power supply facilities as a result of unsynchronized re-closure. Anti-islanding protection is an important technical requirement for grid-connected PV system. Until now, various anti-islanding methods for detecting and preventing islanding of photovoltaic and other distributed generations have been proposed. Most of them are focusing on the anti-islanding performance of single PV system according to the related international and domestic standard test procedures. There are few studies on the islanding phenomenon for multiple photovoltaic operation in parallel. This paper presents performance analysis of anti-islanding function for grid-connected PV inverter systems when several PV inverters are connected in parallel.

계통 연계형 태양광 발전 시스템이 정전 혹은 사고 등으로 계통으로부터 분리되었을 때 태양광 발전 시스템이 배전선 부하를 떠맡아 운전을 계속하는 현상을 고립운전이라 하는데 이런 상태가 지속되면 선로 유지보수자의 안전사고를 야기할 수 있으며 전기설비에 나쁜 영향을 줄 수도 있다. 수동 검출법은 연계점(PCC:Point of Common Coupling)의 전압이나 주파수를 측정하여 한계치를 벗어나면 고립운전으로 판단하는데 RLC 부하의 유효전력과 무효전력이 각각 PV 시스템의 유효전력, 무효전력과 서로 비슷하면 검출할 수 없다. 이 경우 고립운전을 검출하기 위한 다양한 능동 검출법이 제안되었으며 가장 효과적인 방법은 미국 샌디아 연구실(Sandia National Lab)에서 제안한 SFS법(Sandia Frequency Shift method)이다. 본 논문에서는 자동 위상 이동을 이용한 새로운 능동 검출기법을 제안하고 Matlab 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 타당성을 검증하였다.

Islanding phenomenon of utility-connected photovoltaic power conditioning systems(PV PCS) can cause a variety of problems and must be prevented. If the real and reactive power supplied by PV PCS are closely matched to those of load, islanding detection by passive methods becomes difficult. The active frequency drift(AFD) method, called the frequency bias method, enables islanding detection by forcing the frequency of the voltage in the islanding to drift up or down. In this paper, non-detection zone(NDZ) of AFD is analyzed for the islanding detection method of utility-connected PV PCS by the simulation software tool PSIM.

계통연계형 태양광발전 시스템(PV PCS : Photovoltaic Power Conditioning Systems)의 단독운전은 다양한 문제들을 야기 할 수 있으며, 따라서 이는 반드시 방지되어야 한다. 실제로는 단독운전이 발생할 확률이 매우 낮지만, PV PCS가 공급하는 유 무효 전력이 부하가 요구하는 유 무효 전력과 거의 일치한다면, 수동적인 방법만으로는 단독운전 검출이 힘들게 된다. AFD(Active Frequency Drift) 기법은 주파수 바이어스 방법이라고 일컬어지는 방법으로, 단독운전 상태에서 계통과 연결된 노드전압의 주파수를 강제로 빠르게 또는 느리게 하여 단독운전을 검출하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 최근에 들어서 PV PCS의 능동적 단독운전 검출방법으로 많이 사용되는 AFD 기법의 불검출영역을 널리 사용되는 시뮬레이션 툴(PSIM)을 사용하여 분석하였다.

Islanding of PV systems occurs when the utility grid is removed but local sources continue to operate and provide power to local loads. Islanding is one of the serious problems in an electric power system connected with dispersed power sources. Also, this can present safety hazards and the possibility of damage to other electric equipments. If the real and reactive power of RLC load and PV system are closely matched, islanding phenomena can't be detected by the passive methods. Several active methods were proposed to detect islanding phenomena. The most effective method is SFS method which was suggested by Sandia National Laboratory. In this paper, a new anti-islanding algorithm is proposed and its validity is verified through simulation and experimental results for utility interconnection of PV system.
