This paper evaluates implementation load shedding strategy in island mode of microgrid(MG). Microgrid normally operates in interconnected mode either with the medium voltage(MV) and low voltage(LV) network. Microgrid can function both in grid and island mode connected. As electricity demand increases, microgrid deployment becomes an attractive option to meet energy demands. Microgrid during utility grid failure, however, suffers from crucial stability problems come from many aspects. Load Shedding Strategy (LSS) is one of the method used to sustain operation of power system in stable state. The main objective in this paper is to analyze the implementation of Load Shedding Strategy (LSS) on two different cases. The simulation model developed from a mix of generator, photovoltaic cell of source and the lumped load. ETAP software was used in analysing the result.
