Abstract
Described are concepts, systems and methods for operating microgrid systems both during normal operation conditions and during sudden, unexpected occurrences of a fault which results in a source becoming disconnected from a primary supply. This is achieved through control systems and method based upon multi-layered modeling of system controllable components and their interactions. This approach results in controllable components capable of operation in a “plug-and-play” manner.
