Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2A1GB1 provides feeder protection and monitoring for industrial systems. In practice, engineers often struggle with coordinating protection logic across multiple feeders and communicating status to SCADA, which can lead to slower fault isolation and unnecessary downtime. Certification considerations include CE, IP ratings, and SIL standards; verify approvals with Eaton for your region to ensure compliance. By supporting Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485 and offering flexible power inputs, this relay enables scalable protection schemes and seamless integration into existing control architectures.

FAQs

The device uses projection mounting with removable terminals, and supports RS-485 communications via D-Sub connectors for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU. It requires a dual power supply option of 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac and is designed for feeder protection where 8 inputs and 11 outputs coordinate protection logic. Ensure panel space and terminal clearances meet local electrical codes and Eaton installation guidelines.
Key specs include 8 inputs, 11 outputs, 5 A/1 A phase current options, power supply range 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, and 50/60 Hz operation. Communications are Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485, with one sensing input and capable zone selective interlocking. These attributes support precise protection coordination and reliable SCADA integration.
Yes. It is designed as a distribution relay for feeder protection, offering zone selective interlocking and flexible I/O to coordinate protection schemes across feeders. Its RS-485 communication supports integration with SCADA and DCS systems, while the wide input voltage range accommodates global installations and diverse power architectures.
