1. Discuss ZBUS building algorithm. Explain all types of modifications when
transmission lines are added between the buses.
OR
Derive the expression for formation of the Zbus with type-1/type-2/type-3/type-4
modification. (Any one type of modification will be asked)
OR
Explain steps of modification of a Zbus when a link is added to the existing
network. None of the bus is ground to which this link is connected.
2. Elaborate: Bus admittance matrix is sparse.
3. Explain bus incidence matrix and primitive network.
4. What is primitive network? For 4 Bus system interconnected by means of

7. With suitable example, explain Ybus formation by direct inspection method.
8. Prove that in a Ybus matrix, the off diagonal elements are negative of the transfer
admittance connected between the two buses, while the diagonal elements are
sum of all admittances connected to that bus.
9. State the advantages of Ybus.
