Do VFDs with active regen capability typically have any sort of anti-islanding protection? IEEE 1547 specifies that Distributed Energy Resources must trip within 2 seconds, but VFD controlled loads like cranes and elevators can regen for tens of seconds under normal conditions. It seems like there is a risk the VFDs could stay energized for more than 2 seconds during an islanding scenario.
NERC is working on new rules for modeling DER for simulating performance of the Bulk Electric System. So far I have not seen any good proposals for a language to require modeling of flywheel energy storage devices without also requiring modeling of incidental energy storage devices like cranes and elevators. Does anyone have language for a clear distinction?
