FAQs

Install the EDR-5000-2A0BA0 in a standard feeder panel using its semi-flush mounting. Connect power within the 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac range and secure all removable terminals for straightforward maintenance. Wire eight inputs and eleven outputs per your protection scheme, then configure RS-485 communication for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU. Ensure proper grounding and verify zone interlocking is set to the desired coordination level.
The unit provides Voltage Protection and Metering, Current Protection and Metering, and Power Protection and Metering. This enables comprehensive detection and metering across feeder circuits, supports accurate fault location, and improves protective coordination. With 5A and 1A phase current options, it accommodates standard CT ratios used in industrial protection schemes.
Yes. The EDR-5000-2A0BA0 supports both Modbus RTU and DNP3 RTU over RS-485, allowing seamless integration with existing SCADA systems and remote monitoring architectures. This multi-protocol capability reduces integration time, avoids protocol gateways, and enables centralized protection data collection and alarming.
The relay occupies a compact footprint with a width of 9.72 in, height of 8.7 in, and depth of 8.05 in. It weighs about 9.259 lb. It uses removable terminals and semi-flush mounting, simplifying wiring, maintenance, and installation in tight panel spaces while improving accessibility for routine checks.
