Unbalanced loading in a three-phase microgrid operating in islanded mode significantly affects voltage regulation and power sharing among the distributed generation (DG) units. Unbalanced loading occurs when the loads connected to each of the three phases are unequal, causing unequal current flow in each phase. This results in voltage imbalances, where the voltage magnitudes on each phase are different. In islanded mode, the microgrid relies on its own DG units to maintain voltage and frequency stability. When the loading is unbalanced, the DG units must work harder to regulate the voltage on each phase independently. However, if the DG units are not properly controlled, the ....
