Some existing challenges with the integration of distributed energy resources (DER) and embedded microgrids are: congestion and voltage management, and fault protection issues. Until now, a limited amount of field experiments have been performed with embedded microgrids. This paper presents the Strijp-S living lab for embedded microgrid studies. The living lab consists of an urban distribution network with over 1000 consumers. For experimentation, advanced measurement equipment, automated
