Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-5000-2A0FA0
Wide power supply range and removable terminals simplify field installation and retrofit projects, reducing wiring time and enabling flexible siting in existing panels. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Wide voltage support (19-300Vdc, 40-250Vac) ensures compatibility with diverse feeders and DC bus architectures, delivering consistent protection without extra power conversion equipment. Application: retrofit programs and new builds seeking streamlined installation. Eight inputs and eleven outputs enable comprehensive protection schemes with zone selective interlocking (ZSI) support; this translates to tighter protection coordination and faster fault isolation in complex feeders. Application: industrial plants requiring precise tripping logic and metering across multiple feeders. Fiber-optic communication for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU enables secure, long-distance SCADA integration without RF interference. Application: remote monitoring and centralized control across distributed facilities. Current sensing inputs (1) and IRIG-B Trip Coil Monitor option broaden protection scope, supporting advanced protection and time synchronization in critical electrical networks. Application: power protection and metering with accurate timing. Removable terminals and a semi-flush mounting method ease installation, maintenance, and future upgrades in crowded switchgear environments. Application: field serviceability and retrofit-friendly deployments. Sensing inputs cover Power Protection and Metering, Voltage Protection and Metering, and Current Protection and Metering, enabling unified protection and monitoring in a single device. Application: integrated protection strategy for feeders and substations. The EDR-5000-2A0FA0 is designed for feeder applications with robust physical and electrical specs, supporting efficient commissioning and reducing downtime through clear diagnostics and scalable functionality.

FAQs
The EDR-5000-2A0FA0 is designed as a base distribution relay with removable terminals and a wide power range, facilitating retrofit alongside other Eaton protection devices. Ensure the base relay model (EDR-5000) matches your current protection scheme and verify wiring compatibility during panel upgrades.
It supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications over fiber optic ST, enabling secure, long-distance integration with SCADA systems and centralized monitoring without interference from electrical noise.
Yes. The device provides Zone Selective Interlocking capability (1 ZSI channel), enabling coordinated, selective tripping to minimize arc flash and equipment downtime while preserving service continuity.
The relay supports a broad power supply range of 19-300Vdc and 40-250Vac at 50/60 Hz, with one current sensing input. It also offers voltage and current protection/metering sensing capabilities to consolidate protection functions.
Eaton offers a one-year limited warranty from installation or eighteen months from shipment, per policy 25-000. For regional compliance and extended support options, contact Eaton directly or your authorized distributor.
