Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay provides centralized feeder protection and monitoring for industrial power systems. This device is designed to simplify the protection topology on complex automation networks while enabling fast diagnostics. In many installations, unreliable protection, hard-to-integrate protocols, and limited diagnostics lead to unplanned downtime; the EDR-3000-2A1GA0 addresses these pain points with flexible communication and robust input/output options. While exact regulatory certifications should be confirmed with Eaton, this family commonly supports CE considerations and industry-standard protections, and can be specified for SIL-ready options where required. With Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485, plus a wide power range (19–300 Vdc, 40–250 Vac) and four inputs/outputs, it delivers scalable feeder protection for industrial automation and electrical protection duties across plant floors.

FAQs

Begin by verifying the supply voltage (19-300 Vdc, 40-250 Vac) and confirming Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485 wiring. Connect four input/output channels to the feeder protection scheme using the removable terminals, then configure the communication parameters in the EDR-3000-2A1GA0 to match your PLC or SCADA system. This setup minimizes wiring errors and speeds up commissioning while preserving diagnostic visibility through Modbus/DNP3 messages.
Important specs include power supply range (19-300 Vdc, 40-250 Vac), frequency rating (50/60 Hz), number of inputs/outputs (4 each), and current sensing inputs (1). The device supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485. These parameters determine compatibility with your protection scheme and allow precise fault reporting and metering in feeder applications.
Yes. With four I/O channels, current sensing, and RS-485 communications for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU, this relay is well-suited for feeder protection in manufacturing lines. It integrates with existing SCADA systems, enabling remote monitoring and faster fault isolation in dynamic production environments.
Compliance information for this model is provided by the manufacturer. The general guidance is to verify CE markings, IP ratings, and SIL readiness options with Eaton to ensure alignment with your plant’s regulatory and safety requirements. Always confirm the exact certifications for your region and application with Eaton before procurement.
The EDR-3000-2A1GA0 offers improved protection selectivity, reduced nuisance trips, and enhanced remote diagnostics via RS-485 protocols.
