The decisive problem in distributed generation is islanding. The detection of islanding phenomenon having a great importance. These detection methods are classified as local and remote islanding detection. These two methods are based on changing in parameters such as frequency, voltage and current harmonics. But these methods have some challenges such as reduction in power quality and large Non Detection Zone (NDZ). In this paper, the proposed method relies on the variations of active, reactive power, current-voltage phase shifts and THD value of voltage waveform at PCC will be studied for islanding detection diagnosis. The studied system was considered by following the standard IEEE-1547 and UL1741. The system was simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
