I. INTRODUCTION
Today's environmental forces are generating a new
market for renewable energy resources. It is predicted that
by 2010, nearly 10% of the electric energy in Europe will
be supplied by this type of sources as wind turbines attract
more attention than the other resources [1]. Connecting
wind turbines to the distribution network produce some
problems like islanding.
Islanding occurs when a wind turbine becomes
electrically isolated from the grid, but continues to
produce electric energy and supply local loads. According
to the IEEE standard, all embedded generators must be
disconnected automatically and remain disconnected until
the normal grid supply is restored [2].
Typically, voltage relays are used to detect islanding of
wind turbines use induction generator. Induction
generators are essentially induction motors that are driven
at speed above their nominal synchronous speed and
require currents for producing magnetic field. Once the
grid is disconnected, the excitation field reduces rapidly
and terminal voltages collapse. In this case, an under
voltage relay simply detects the islanding. However, there
are some situations in which excitation field remains
almost constant and therefore the wind turbine continues
to operate. In this case, the Rate Of Change of Frequency
(ROCOF) relays have been utilized [3]. Typical ROCOF
relays installed in 50Hz systems are set between 0.1Hz/s
and 1.0Hz/s [4, 5]. However, there is a little work on
modeling this case.
The objective of this paper is to present a new method
for islanding detection of wind turbines equipped with
