Eaton EDR-3000-2C0BA1 Distribution Relay - Modbus RTU over RS485

Power supply flexibility and robust mounting options enable faster commissioning and reduced panel alterations. The unit accepts 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac, supporting mixed power environments and simplifying spare parts management; removable terminals streamline maintenance and field service. This translates to lower install time, easier future upgrades, and fewer wiring errors in high-density panels. The combination of 4 inputs and 4 outputs with projection mounting boosts modularity, enabling scalable protection schemes and straightforward fault isolation in feeders, substations, or data-center distributions. In practice, engineers gain predictable protection performance with clear diagnostics, aiding root-cause analysis during outages and enabling tighter control of feeders in real-time. Compatibility with Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS485 supports seamless SCADA integration and remote fault reporting, reducing on-site visits and improving asset utilization. IRIG-B time synchronization as an option enhances time-stamped data for accurate metering and event logging, improving compliance and forensic analysis. Zone selective interlocking, with a dedicated 1-zone capability, minimizes customer outages by coordinating selective tripping within the feeder network, a critical advantage for critical loads and data centers. The device’s current protection and metering capability deliver actionable energy insight and precise fault detection, supporting energy management initiatives and billable load profiling. The combination of 50/60 Hz operation, removable terminals, and a dedicated feeder role ensures rapid replacement in maintenance windows and consistent protection across fleets of relays in large plants.
