Title :
Application of direct transfer trip for prevention of DG islanding
Author_Institution :
GE Energy, Schenectady, NY, USA
Abstract :
DG-energized distribution feeder islands are generally not desired. Anti-islanding schemes based on local detection have significant shortcomings, and can only detect an island after it occurs. A Coordinated Direct Transfer Trip scheme can avoid islanding altogether, but becomes very complex if a feeder is reconfigurable.
