1 Islanding to grid-connected transition Version 1.2 March 11, Descriptions of Function 1.1 Function Name Unintentional Islanding Transition 1.2 Function ID 1.3 Brief Description This use case describes the function when a disconnects from the area power system (AEPS) when there is a large disturbance internally or externally so that the can be isolated from the disturbance and continue the power supply to its loads in islanded mode. The large disturbance can be internal or external faults, loss of AEPS, and some other disturbances that the APS is no longer able to provide power supply with specified power quality.

2 MICROGRID FUNCTIONAL USE CASES This is one of ten (10) use cases related to and operations between the area Electric Power System (AEPS) and Advanced s in connected, transition and islanded modes. operations and is described in terms of functions. The Functional Use Cases for Control and Operations of Advanced s are 1. Frequency 2. Voltage (grid-connected & islanding) 3. Grid-connected to islanding transition - Intentional 4. Grid-connected to islanding transition Unintentional 5. Islanding to grid-connected transition 6. Energy management (grid-connected & islanding) 7. Protection 8. Ancillary services (Grid-connected) 9. Black start 10. User interface and data management ORNL_UC_F-4.doc 2 3/20/2014

3 1.4 Narrative Usually there are large and rapid frequency and voltage deviations during a large disturbance and the needs to be capable of detecting such abnormal conditions and islanding from such disturbance, and more importantly, to be capable of disconnecting from the AEPS and maintaining its stability after the islanding transition. Once the switch detects abnormal condition based on its worn measurements of frequency and voltage, and possible combined with the measurement of current, the switch opens and the islands from the AEPS. The switch sends its status to the primary sources so that they can change their modes to frequency and voltage modes to restore the and maintains the stability of the. The switch also sends its status to the so that it can update the accordingly and send the update to all the actors. The sends the AEPS the status and updates the with the latest measurements and status as well. After the is stabilized, the calculates the economic es in the islanded mode and sends them to the, which distributes them to the actors to execute. 1.5 Actor (Stakeholder) Roles Grouping (Community), Group Description Actor Name Actor* - This use case. Actor Type (person, organization, device, system, or subsystem) Actor Description Area Electric Power System (AEPS) * System The electrical power system that normally supplies the through their point of common coupling. Area Natural Gas Supply (ANGS) System The natural gas pipeline system that supplies natural gas to the. Asset Switches (ASw) The ASw has the capability to disconnect assets within the (e.g. NCL) from the for purposes. The ASw can receive signals from the MC and can inform the MC of its status.

4 Grouping (Community), Group Description Actor Name Actor* - This use case. Centralized Protection Controller (CPC) Critical Load (CL) * Market Operator (MO) ler (MC) * Actor Type (person, organization, device, system, or subsystem) System System System System Actor Description This is a central that is able to communicate with protective devices. It can operate to update settings, or coordinate the operation of protection in real time. This can be a standalone function, or it could be a part of the MCC. Loads within the having the highest priority of service. These loads will be served at the expense of all other loads in the and at the expense of any other service the could provide. The priority of loads within the critical loads is not distinguished. The MO accepts bids from assets, such as a MG, in its AEPS and es these assets to provide energy and ancillary services to ensure reliability for the AEPS. The MO may be part of the AEPS or may be a separate entity. A system that is able to the assets, e.g. opening/closing switches, changing reference points, changing generation/consumption levels, etc. Other than the functions specifically referenced below, this Use Case does not specify the objective of any of the ler functions. This Use Case does not specify how the signals are transferred or implemented in the assets. The communication and data acquisition of the ler. It collects real-time data from each individual actor, passes the data to the for the calculation of economic, receives the economic from the, and distributes them to the actors. It also s and coordinates the sources and loads to maintain system stability. ORNL_UC_F-4.doc 4 3/20/2014

5 Grouping (Community), Group Description Actor Name Actor* - This use case. Switch (MS) * Non-Critical Load (NCL) * Other Resource (OR) * Point of Common Coupling (PCC) * Primary Resource (PR) * Protection device (PD, w-com) (with communications) Protection device (PD, w/o-com) (without communications) Actor Type (person, organization, device, system, or subsystem) Actor Description A switch at the point of common coupling of the and the AEPS. The switch has the capability to detect the loss of power from the AEPS and disturbances in the AEPS. The MS can open and close automatically and on command from the MC and can inform the MC of its status. Loads within the having the lowest priority of service. These loads may be left unserved in favor of Critical Loads. The priority of loads within the critical loads is not distinguished. All energy resources in the except for the primary resources. OR could be a generator, energy storage system, or a load. The electrical interface between the AEPS and the. The energy resources responsible for frequency and voltage regulation. PRs could be a generator, an energy storage system, or lable load. This is a relay type device that is able to interrupt fault current and communicates with other devices or the MCC. An example would be a protective relay that has communication with the MCC. This is a relay type device that is able to interrupt fault current and operates in isolation. Examples include relays without the ability to communication, and fuses. Protection relay (PR) The device to detect and clear a fault. Switching device (SD, w-com) (with communications) This is a switching device that communicates with other devices or the MCC/CPC. ORNL_UC_F-4.doc 5 3/20/2014

Switching device (SD, w/o-com) (without communications) Actor Type (person, organization, device, system, or subsystem) Actor Description This is a switching device that does not communicate with other devices or the MCC/CPC. 1.6 exchanged Object Name Measurements and status switch status Object Description Includes voltage, current and/or power measured at each actor, and the status of the actor, including on/off status, operation modes, and other actor operation status indicators. The sent from to individual actors, including sources, loads, switch, and protection devices. The the economic from the, and send signals to the actors between the two economic es to maintain the system stability during islanded operation mode. The include the source mode, real and reactive power, and load levels for lable loads. The source mode determine if a source is operated as a primary source that s the frequency and/or voltage of the during islanded operation condition or as other source.
