Q:   Which OneLiner IBR models correspond to which physical IBR devices?

A:   The following table summarizes the correspondence between a physical device and the model within OneLiner that typically provides a functional representation of the fault response of that device. It is important to check with specific generator vendors to understand the expected fault-ride-through behavior of an actual installation and to select a model that reasonably reflects that behavior.
