An inverter-based MG consists of micro-sources, distribution lines and loads that are connected to main-grid via static switch. The inverter models include variable frequencies as well as voltage amplitudes. In an inverter-based microgrid, grid-connected inverters are responsible for maintaining a stable operating point [112, 113].
