● In simple terms ZBUS can be represented as
● 𝑉= 𝑍𝐼 Z12

ZBUS Matrix Elements
● The elements of bus admittance matrix can be expressed as,
○ Diagonal elements are driving point impedance measured at the buses by making
remaining bus currents are zero.
○ Off diagonal elements are transfer impedances between two parts or buses by making
remaining bus currents as zero.
ZBUS Matrix Elements
● Driving point open circuit impedance ≠ inverse of driving point short circuit admittance.
● The diagonal elements of ZBUS represent Thevenin impedance so ZBUS will be used for fault
analysis whereas YBUS cannot be used in fault analysis as inverse of YBUS elements won’t yield
Thevenin impedance.
Note : Both Bus Impedance and Bus Admittance Matrices are symmetric Matrices.
Construction of
ZBUS
The most common method
for construction of Bus
Impedance Matrix would be
Inversion of Bus Admittance
Matrix.
ZBUS building algorithm
Modification of Bus Impedance Matrix for every small change in power system would be difficult as we would have
to convert to Bus Admittance Matrix and modify it and then convert back to Bus Impedance Matrix.
So, we resort to another algorithm which makes it easier to modify Bus Impedance Matrix.
