This paper proposes a control method that can stably maintain the frequency of the MG in various situations by combining the advantages of master–slave control and droop control and complementing the disadvantages. DG growth drives new studies to predict different results in the electrical grid. The IEEE 1547 technical guidelines bring the possibility that in case of any. . The role of master DERs is significant in synchronising the slave DERs and reducing the effect of single unit failure. Storages work as master voltage sources, and PVs operate as current controlled voltage sources (CCVS). In this paper, a multi-master–slave-based control of distributed generators interface converters in a three-phase four-wire islanded micro-grid using the conservative power theory (CPT) is. . A computer system known as "master-slave architecture" involves a single central unit, referred to as the "master," that governs and guides the activities of several slaves, or subordinate units.
