Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
EBR-3000-2B0FA1

Quick Summary

Eaton Bus differential relay safeguards power bus sections with fast differential protection. In modern switchgear, nuisance trips and unplanned outages can cascade into costly downtime; this relay helps you detect and isolate faults quickly. Certification considerations in the field often include CE labeling, IP ratings, and SIL where applicable; verify with Eaton for this model. Designed for industrial environments, it supports high-impedance protection and operates across 50/60 Hz networks to accommodate both new installations and retrofits. By enabling MODBUS/DNP3 communications and a projection-panel mounting, it integrates with SCADA and substation automation while delivering reliable bus protection that reduces lifecycle costs.

High-impedance bus differential protection is embedded in the EBR-3000-2B0FA1, delivering precise differential sensing that minimizes miscoordination and safeguards feeders. The business impact is a measurable reduction in nuisance trips and faster fault isolation, translating to less unplanned downtime and safer switching operations. In practice, this protection suits bus sections in medium- and low-voltage switchgear where rapid isolation matters. MODBUS and DNP3 communication support enables remote monitoring and control through existing SCADA systems, delivering improved visibility, faster decision-making, and simplified maintenance. In application, technicians can query status and fault history without opening panels, reducing field trips and service costs. Projection-panel mounting simplifies retrofit projects by aligning with standard enclosure openings, enabling faster installations and lower labor costs, especially in space-constrained environments. Electrical ratings—5 A contact rating, 50/60 Hz operation, burden 10 W / 17 VA—ensure reliable signaling with minimal power draw and compatibility with existing protection schemes. The device’s broad operating temperature range (-20° to 60°C) supports harsh environments, while the warranty and Eaton support network reduce lifecycle risk and total cost of ownership.

FAQs

The EBR-3000-2B0FA1 uses projection panel mounting, which aligns with standard enclosure openings and minimizes retrofitting work. For installation, ensure compatibility with the EBR-Z High-Impedance Module, wire the 5A contact signaling channels correctly, and follow the device’s electrical ratings (50/60 Hz) to maintain proper protective coordination and fault signaling. Verify panel space and mounting clearance to avoid interference with adjacent components.
Key specs include a 50/60 Hz operating frequency, 5 A AC/DC contact rating, and a burden of 10 W / 17 VA. The device weighs 5.3 lb and measures 7.49 in depth by 8.62 in height by 6.82 in width. Operating temperature ranges from -20°C to 60°C, and it supports projection-panel mounting for streamlined installations.
Yes, the EBR-3000-2B0FA1 supports MODBUS/DNP3 communications, enabling SCADA integration for status monitoring, alarm management, and fault data retrieval. This capability reduces field service visits and accelerates fault analysis, improving overall reliability and uptime.
This relay is ideal for bus differential protection in power distribution panels, substations, and switchgear where fast fault isolation is critical. Its high-impedance option (with the EBR-Z module) enhances protection selectivity in complex bus configurations, and projection-panel mounting makes retrofits practical in space-constrained facilities.
Warranty follows Eaton policy 25-000: one year from installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first. Access to Eaton support and documentation, including datasheets and installation guides, helps optimize maintenance planning and ensures rapid assistance if issues arise.
