1. A method for selectively connecting a first electrical system and a second electrical system, the method comprising:

  • sampling a first alternating electric current having a first frequency at a sampling frequency to obtain a first set of data samples, the sampling frequency corresponding to a system frequency of the first electrical system multiplied by a sampling rate;

    sampling a second alternating electric current having a second frequency at the sampling frequency to obtain a second set of data samples;

    converting at least one of the first set of data samples and the second set of data samples to a converted set of data samples using a conversion algorithm to compensate for a frequency difference between the first frequency and the second frequency;

    determining when the converted set of data samples and at least one of the first set of data samples and the second set of data samples satisfy a predetermined condition; and

    actuating a breaker when the predetermined condition is satisfied to selectively connect the first electrical system and the second electrical system.
