Section PSC 119.30 - Unintentional islanding test

The public utility may perform an unintentional islanding test or observe the automatic shutdown before giving final written approval for interconnection of the DG facility. The unintentional islanding test requires that the DG facility shall detect the island, cease to energize the local distribution system, and trip within two seconds of the formation of an island. The test shall be conducted as close to the point of common coupling as possible and should demonstrate that the DG facility does not energize the local distribution or transmission system. The test shall be conducted with all DG facility equipment operational and generating at an output that reflects site conditions acceptable to both parties. If a voltage is sustained after the simulation of an unintentional island, approval of the installation shall not be given until corrective measures are taken with a subsequent successful test.
