It is also a key issue in the photovoltaic agriculture. In this work, an overview on the islanding effect in grid-connected PV power systems was provided. Various islanding detection methods were introduced and their strength and weakness were dicussed. An improved islanding detection method was proposed based on active frequency drift （AFD）. The new method tolerated capacitive and inductive loads, because its perturbation signal was not offset by the non-resistive load. The new method through simulation in MATLAB/Simulink was evaluated and the advantages of the new method were demonstrated.展开更多
