FAQs
Installation starts with confirming space for standard mounting and ensuring the EBR-3000-2B0IB0 is paired with the EBR-Z High Impedance Module if required. Mount the unit outside or inside the panel per enclosure guidelines, connect the RS485 or RJ45 MODBUS/DNP3 communications, and wire the 5 A contact inputs. Verify the 50/60 Hz supply and observe the -20 to 60 C operating range. Follow Eaton’s datasheet for wiring diagrams and commissioning steps to minimize miscoordination risk.
Focus on frequency rating (50/60 Hz), contact rating (5 A AC/DC), and burden (10 W / 17 VA) to ensure control power compatibility. The unit supports conformal coating for environmental resilience and standard mounting for straightforward installation. Ensure the protection scheme leverages high impedance logic, and plan for RS485 or RJ45 MODBUS/DNP3 communications to integrate with SCADA or PLCs.
Yes, provided the protection strategy requires precise bus differential protection with high impedance expansion options. The device features standard mounting, 50/60 Hz compatibility, a reasonable footprint, and RS485 or RJ45 communications for SCADA integration. For data centers, the conformal coating and robust environmental tolerance support reliable operation in controlled but attitude-sensitive environments.
Compliances indicate 'Contact Manufacturer' for formal certifications. The data sheet highlights features like conformal coating and modular compatibility but does not specify CE, UL, or IP ratings. For regulatory compliance, consult Eaton directly or request a formal certification statement and the latest datasheet to confirm applicable standards for your region and project requirements.
Expected return comes from reduced nuisance trips, faster fault isolation, and lower maintenance due to conformal coating and rugged construction. The unit’s compact form factor and standard mounting simplify installation and retrofit, reducing labor costs. With a one-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment per Eaton policy), your total cost of ownership improves through fewer interruptions and longer service intervals.
