Data record `std.ieee-1547.structure.islanding`

Verified 2026-10-24 Confidence: High

Clause 8 of IEEE 1547-2018 obliges a DER to recognize an unintentional island and then to cease to energize and to trip within a time limit the clause states, which mutual agreement may extend; relying on voltage and frequency trips alone is noted as insufficient for detection. The clause also fixes the settings that apply only while an intentional area electric power system island exists and names the DER island categories.
