description The classical problem of islanding detection in distributed generation falls into the commonly used categories known as passive, active, and hybrid techniques. These approaches vary in terms of their accuracy, security, and dependability. Detecting islanding in modern inverter-based distribution systems is of the utmost importance to ensuring the protection of equipment, ensuring the safety of workers, and preventing operational and cascaded faults when the system is specially subjected to renewable integration. This research paper presents a technical comparison of the aforementioned techniques, discussing their detection rate, Non-Detection Zone (NDZ), distinct topologies, and their effectiveness in integration for low-frequency grids. The review offers a thorough analysis comparing the key attributes found in the current literature while also highlighting the forthcoming needs for advanced management, optimization, and control technologies. These technologies are crucial to effectively tackling the difficulties that arise from integrating renewable energy sources into established grid systems.
