MICROGRIDS HAVE LONG BEEN DEPLOYED TO
provide power to customers in remote areas as well as critical
industrial and military loads. Today, they are also being proposed as grid-interactive solutions for energy-resilient communities. Such microgrids will spend most of the time operating while synchronized with the surrounding utility grid but
will also be capable of separating during contingency periods
due to storms or temporary disturbances such as local grid

faults. Properly designed and grid-integrated microgrids can
provide the flexibility, reliability, and resiliency needs of both
the future grid and critical customers. These systems can be
an integral part of future power system designs that optimize
investments to achieve operational goals, improved reliability,
and diversification of energy sources.
The key components of a microgrid are the isolating device
at the point of interconnection (POI); the electric and thermal
