MICROGRIDS DEFINITION. A microgrid (MG) is defined as ''a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources (DER) with clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid and can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to operate in both grid-connected or island modes'' [].

AC and DC microgrids interconnected by SST, as proposed by [76]. As another example, in [77], an HMG with different voltage levels, includes MV- and LV-AC buss, a MV-DC microgrid, and a LV-DC microgrid. This structure is illustrated in Fig. 8. As shown, the SST is located between two AC buses and also interconnects the DC microgrids.
