Sumario:Distributed generation (DG) resources integration into power system results in environmental and economic benefits. However, technical challenges may create many problems for the distribution system. Islanding detection is the topmost technical perspective regarding distribution system protection. This paper devised a passive islanding detection strategy that employed voltage phase angle (VPA). The VPA is selected after the performance assessment of 6 passive indices. Comparative study proves that VPA has the best accuracy and sensitivity compared to other indices parameters. The proposed technique is employed on a generic system that easily distinguished islanding situations from non-islanding cases such as load increment, load decrement, capacitor energization, capacitor de-energization, motor starting, motor unloading and various types of faults switching scenarios. The protective method is simple and has a quick interpretation algorithm as compared to other existing methods. The study is carried out on IEEE 1547 general test system in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The proposed strategy has nearly zero non-detection zone.
