equations resulting in the 4x4 primitive matrix. The Kron
reduction is used to create the 3x3 phase impedance matrix [ Eabc ] = [ Zeqabc ] ⋅ [ If abc ] + [ Zfabc ] ⋅ [ Ifabc ] + [Vabc ]x + ⎡⎣Vxg ⎤⎦

application the correct mutual coupling between phases is (9)
computed. For two-phase lines the elements in the row and
column of the missing phase will be zero. The same is true Reference [3] reduces Equation 9 to a general form of:
for a single-phase line. In all cases only 3x3 matrices are
computed. In Figure 1 the matrix [ Zsysabc ] will be the sum [ IPabc ] = [ If abc ] + [Y ] ⋅ [Vabc ]x + [Y ] ⋅ ⎡⎣Vxg ⎤⎦
