Microgrids are nascent, with many lessons still to be learned. Work at Mount Holly has shown that microgrids may not follow common design or standard algorithms. Protection, transformers, grounding, operations, fault detection, and islanding all require attention to detail and may not operate in the manner the toolset currently in use indicates they should.
