This report documents the development of an inverter control method that detects and avoids islanding in utility-interconnected photovoltaic installations. This method is applicable to single and multiple inverters connected to a single utility distribution line. The anti-islanding approach is described and its performance is demonstrated on both a theoretical basis and with results from tests conducted at Sandia National Laboratories and Ascension Technology, a division of Applied Power Corporation. It has been demonstrated that this approach is effective for single and multiple photovoltaic inverter installations for the special case where the inverter contains a version of anti-islanding software compatible with IEEE Std 929-2000.The report also describes the anti-islanding technique so that it can be incorporated into photovoltaic systems lacking this feature. A test procedure that ascertains whether an anti-islanding capability exists in a PV inverter is also presented.
