• 1.Load flow studies are done to find mainly the

current. We know that I= V/Z and Z= 1/Y.
Hence, I=Y*V. All these are matrices and hence
division by matrices is very hard we use
multiplication using Y instead of dividing with
Advantages Z.
of Ybus 2. Y values are small compared to Z. Hence
calculation becomes simpler.
3. Easy to incorporate effect of mutual
coupling.
4. Y matrix is symmetrical and there are many
zeros in it. Hence it requires less memory as
load flow analysis are done in computers.
