A system and method for changing protection settings groups for relays in a micro-grid between a grid-connected settings group and an islanded settings group. The method changes a power source relay from the grid-connected settings group to the islanded settings group before the micro-grid is disconnected from the utility grid, disconnects the micro-grid from the utility grid, and then changes a load relay from the grid-connected settings group to the islanded settings group after the micro-grid is disconnected from the utility grid. The method also changes the load relay from the islanded settings group to the grid-connected settings group before the micro-grid is connected to the utility grid, connects the micro-grid to the utility grid, and then changes the power source relay from the islanded settings group to the grid-connected settings group after the micro-grid is connected to the utility grid.
