Abstract

Traditionally, interconnection standards avoid islanding operation of distributed generation, DG, due to the concerns of equipment failure and safety issues. However, in some cases, allowing of islanding of DG connected to radial subtransmission system could improve the system reliability and decrease outage cost during power outage or schedule maintenance. In order to perform intentional islanding appropriately, this paper presents the impact study on DG connected to radial subtransmission system. Both steady- state and dynamic studies are performed to show how to arrange DG and electric power system for the intentional islanding on the specific case
