Abstract: To provide electric utility service of desired quality at the lowest possible cost, voltage drop and power loss reduction is crucial for distribution network. Distribution systems with Distributed Energy Resources (DER) have shown an enormous potential for power loss and voltage drop reduction. This paper investigates existing islanding detection techniques for feeder performance and proposes a new islanding detection algorithm (NIDA) for node voltage profile improvement and power loss reduction in the distribution network.
