Eaton EDR-3000-2B1GA1 Distribution Relay – Modbus RTU over RS-485
Part Number: EDR-3000-2B1GA1
Quick Summary
Eaton distribution relay EDR-3000-2B1GA1 provides robust feeder protection and control for industrial electrical panels. This device helps engineers streamline wiring and improve reliability across mixed-voltage environments. A major challenge in modern facilities is integrating diverse power supplies and fieldbus protocols within a single feeder, which this relay addresses with a broad power range and RS-485 communication supporting Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU. While exact compliance certifications should be confirmed with the manufacturer, equipment in this class typically aligns with recognized industry standards to simplify procurement and approval processes. By combining 8 inputs, 6 outputs, and flexible mounting, the EDR-3000-2B1GA1 delivers fast deployment and clear long-term value for feeder protection and metering applications.

FAQs
Install with the included projection mounting and removable terminals for quick wiring. Connect 8 inputs and 6 outputs to your feeder circuit, then interface the RS-485 port using Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over a D-Sub connector. Ensure your power supply is within 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac and that your SCADA system supports the chosen protocol. Verify wiring integrity and perform a commissioning test to confirm communication and protection settings.
The device supports wide input ranges including 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, operates at 50/60 Hz, and provides phase current options of 5 A and 1 A. It features one current-sensing input and multiple I/O for protection and metering, enabling precise fault detection and measurement within feeder circuits.
Yes, the relay is designed for feeder protection in industrial panels, with fieldbus communication options that ease integration with protection schemes. However, exact certifications should be confirmed with Eaton for your environment, as specifications show manufacturer-listed compliance rather than a published certification mark.
Certification details are provided by the manufacturer. The product listing notes Compliance as ‘Contact Manufacturer,’ so verify CE, UL, IP ratings, or other certifications directly with Eaton prior to deployment to ensure alignment with local regulations and plant standards.
The unit uses removable terminals for ease of wiring and replacement, reducing downtime during maintenance. Its 8-in/6-out configuration with a compact 5.3 lb footprint supports faster assembly and service, while its wide power range and RS-485 communications reduce integration costs and improve protection reliability, contributing to a favorable return on investment over the equipment’s life cycle.
