ISLAND NETWORK DETECTION BY VOLTAGE SOURCE INVERTERS, AND INVERTER

The disclosure is directed to an island network detection method using a voltage-impressing converter, and includes determining the frequency and phase of a voltage curve of a sub-network connected to a network connection point of the converter, and generating a voltage curve using a bridge circuit of the converter with the determined frequency. The method also includes determining a correlation between a first temporal variation and a second temporal variation of an output exchanged by the converter with the sub-network, and detecting an island network if the determined correlation undershoots a specified correlation measurement.
