Quick Summary

EDR-5000-2A1HB1 is a high-performance distribution relay designed for feeder protection and metering in industrial power systems. This module consolidates protection logic and monitoring, reducing wiring complexity and speeding fault isolation. Many projects struggle with integrating IEC 61850, M-Bus TCP, and DNP3 TCP/UDP communications alongside traditional relay functions; this unit helps simplify that mix. Compliances are listed as 'Contact Manufacturer', so verify regional certifications as required for your installation. The device supports Ethernet-based communications, flexible I/O, and scalable data visibility, delivering improved reliability, reduced lifecycle costs, and smoother digital integration. In practice, this translates to streamlined engineering, faster commissioning, and better alignment with modern, data-driven plant architectures.

FAQs

Installation begins with selecting a suitable panel, applying the projection mounting, and ensuring proper terminal removal for wiring access. Connect the 19–300 VDC or 40–250 VAC supply to the power terminals, verify the 8 input/11 output wiring, and configure the communication interfaces (61850, M-Bus TCP, DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet) through the PowerPort-E or equivalent configuration tool. Follow manufacturer guidelines for grounding and protection to ensure reliable operation.
The EDR-5000 supports IEC 61850, M-Bus TCP, and DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ45. Configuration is performed via Eaton’s interface tools, enabling device addressing, SCADA data mapping, and polling intervals. This enables interoperable data exchange with modern substation and plant networks while preserving traditional protection logic on a single device.
Yes. The relay is rated for 50/60 Hz operation, aligning with global electrical grids. Its protection and metering functions are designed to adapt to either frequency standard, ensuring consistent performance and accurate measurements across international installations.
The unit provides 8 inputs and 11 outputs, with one voltage sensing input and one current sensing input. It also offers options such as IRIG-B, Trip Coil Monitor, and Sensitive Ground Input. This combination supports robust protection logic, status signaling, and precise trip signaling for feeders and protection schemes.
