FAQs

Plan for projection mounting and ensure the unit is installed in a location with adequate ventilation. The EDR-5000-2A0CB1 uses conformal coated circuit boards which improve reliability in damp or dusty environments. Leverage removable terminals to simplify wiring changes and future upgrades, and verify voltage supply compatibility across 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac to avoid power-supply mismatches.
The relay provides current protection and metering, voltage protection and metering, and power protection and metering across eight inputs and eleven outputs. This consolidation reduces external metering devices, enhances data integrity, and enables accurate feeder protection coordination. In practice, engineers can configure zone selective interlocking to minimize disruption and optimize protection settings for critical feeders.
Yes. The device supports Modbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ-45, allowing seamless SCADA integration and remote configuration. This compatibility enables centralized monitoring, faster diagnostics, and remote firmware or configuration updates, reducing on-site visits and enabling consistent protection across multi-site installations.
Certification and compliance details are provided by Eaton and depend on configuration. While the data here notes Compliances as Contact Manufacturer, customers should request the exact CE, UL, or other regulatory approvals for their specific installation and region to ensure full compliance with local electrical standards.
The EDR-5000-2A0CB1 consolidates protection and metering with Ethernet-based control, reducing wiring, panel space, and maintenance complexity. Remote monitoring minimizes downtime, accelerates fault diagnosis, and shortens commissioning cycles. Over time, this translates to lower total cost of ownership, improved asset visibility, and faster return on investment for power distribution networks.
