FAQs

Installation begins with mounting the unit using the projection method and securing the device to the panel. The terminals are removable, simplifying wiring and rework. Connect the 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac power supply, and wire the eight inputs and six outputs according to the protection scheme. RS-485 and Ethernet TCP communication lines should be routed to the PLC or SCADA network. This approach minimizes commissioning time and reduces field wiring errors.
The relay provides Modbus compatibility over RS-485 for RTU communications and Modbus TCP over Ethernet RJ-45 for TCP/IP networks. This dual capability enables straightforward integration with common SCADA and MES platforms, supporting remote monitoring, metering data, and fault diagnostics without needing extra gateways or protocol converters.
Equipped with current sensing inputs of 5 A and 1 A and current protection and metering sensing, the unit supports multiple protection schemes and metering accuracy. It has eight inputs and six outputs, which allows complex coordination across multiple feeders. Trip Coil Monitor and Sensitive Ground Input further enhance protection reliability, enabling precise fault detection and safer system operation in large-scale electrical networks.
Compliance is documented through Eaton’s official policies and product literature; specific certifications should be confirmed on the Eaton specification sheet. The warranty follows Eaton Selling Policy 25-000, offering one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This provides a clear baseline for maintenance planning and service level expectations.
Yes, thanks to its wide power input range, removable terminals, and compact projection mounting, the EDR-3000-2B1IA1 suits retrofit projects where space and wiring changes are constrained. Its RS-485 and Ethernet communications ease upgradation to modern digital protection without replacing the entire control system, delivering faster ROI through improved protection coordination and remote diagnostics.
