Ybus for network with three sources

Short answer

Combine each generator and its transformer series reactance into a shunt admittance to ground. Compute line admittances from impedances. Diagonal entries: sum of all admittances connected to the bus; off-diagonals: negative of line admittance. Ybus = [[11.8966–j42.2414, –6.8966+j17.2414, –5+j15]; [–6.8966+j17.2414, 16.8966–j51.2414, –10+j30]; [–5+j15, –10+j30, 15–j50]] pu.

For the network shown below obtain a bus admittance matrix. [Figure: three buses; line 1-2 = 0.02 + j0.05, line 1-3 = 0.02 + j0.06, line 2-3 = 0.01 + j0.03; source E1 with x = j0.02 connected to bus 1 through transformer T1 of j0.08; source E2 with x = j0.13 connected to bus 2 through transformer T2 of j0.12; source E3 with x = j0.1 connected to bus 3 through transformer T3 of j0.1]

Each source reactance is in series with its transformer, so each source branch is a shunt admittance from its bus to the reference (generator emfs become current injections and do not enter YbusY_{bus}).
