Thank you sir. I understand what you mean, so if I have to use the modified 
ward equivalence in MATPOWER instead to eliminate all the load busses, 
retaining only the 54 generator buses, would I not be faced with the problem 
associated with the traditional Ward reduction like 'smearing' fractions of the 
generator /load in the external buses across boundary buses?  Also, is my code 
right to obtain the reduction?

MATPOWER command used;
mpc = loadcase('case118');
ExBus = 
[118,117,115,114,109,108,106,102,101,98,97,96,95,94,93,88,86,84,83,82,81,79,78,75,71,68,67,64,63,60,58,57,53,52,51,50,48,47,45,44,43,41,39,38,37,35,33,30,29,28,23,22,21,20,17,16,14,13,11,9,7,5,3,2]';
[mpcreduced,Link,BCIRCr]=MPReduction(mpc,ExBus,0)
[Y1] = ext2int(mpcreduced)
[Yreduced] = makeYbus(Y1)

Finally, what reduction method was adopted in MATPOWER for the equivalence, was 
it Kron or any other. Thanks a lot.

Hmm... that is an odd question.  Looking at the Kron reduction myself, I find 
that there are six off-diagonal elements with positive real parts, which would 
imply six "lines" in this 54 bus "network" with negative resistance.  I suppose 
that you could actually synthesize values for pi models that would give you the 
observed coefficients in the reduced matrix, but some of the parameters would 
not be physically possible.

Thank you so much sir. My next question would be, is it possible to compute the 
bus and branch tables from the 54-by-54 admittance matrix? Thank you

When you simplified away the PQ buses, you lost the ability to specify loads in 
them.  So, theoretically, you could perform a load flow in which you can only 
have loads at the 54 generator buses.  You cannot use runpf, though,  as runpf 
starts by building the Ybus matrix from the bus and branch tables; it does not 
take Ybus as an input.  You would have to call newtonpf.m directly with 
suitable parameters.

Hi MATPOWER community,

I asked a question earlier and would like to modify it. I have a reduced 
54-by-54 admittance matrix for case118. Can I use this as an input in MATPOWER 
for my power flow analysis? How do I go about it?
I would appreciate your help. Thank you.
