A resilient control system in the island microgrid including AC and DC buses is designed here. The DC bus is supported by fuel cell, solar cell and battery and the AC bus is equipped with diesel generator and wind turbine. The AC bus is sectionalized into three sub‐buses that enables to continue operation when one section is not functioning. The connection between DC and AC buses is made by two parallel three‐phase lines each line made by three single‐phase inverters. The objectives are to eliminate the harmonics, the unbalanced load management, dealing with outage of resources and short circuits, providing backup strategies and supplying critical loads under all events. The simulations are performed by MATLAB/Simulink. It is demonstrated that the resilient control technique can achieve all the defined purposes at the same time. The harmonics are eliminated, the unbalanced load issues are dealt with and the microgrid has sufficient resilience against outages and faults.
