摘要:One of the biggest challenge for an islanding operation is to sustain the frequency stability. A
large power imbalance following islanding would cause under-frequency, hence an appropriate
control is required to shed certain amount of load. The main objective of this research is to
develop an adaptive under-frequency load shedding (UFLS) technique for an islanding system.
The technique is designed considering an event-based which includes the moment system is
islanded and a tripping of any DG unit during islanding operation. A disturbance magnitude is
calculated to determine the amount of load to be shed. The technique is modeled by using
PSCAD simulation tool. A simulation studies on a distribution network with mini hydro
generation is carried out to evaluate the UFLS model. It is performed under different load
condition: peak and base load. Results show that the load shedding technique have successfully
shed certain amount of load and stabilized the system frequency.
