Eaton EDR-5000-2B0CA0 Distribution Relay - Modbus TCP
Part Number: EDR-5000-2B0CA0
Quick Summary
Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B0CA0 is a configurable feeder protection device designed for industrial power systems. It helps engineers consolidate protection, metering, and remote monitoring in a single, scalable I/O platform. The challenge many teams face is integrating protection settings with modern SCADA and ensuring compatibility across varying voltage environments. For this reason, it’s important to verify region-specific certifications with the manufacturer. While compliance details can vary, Eaton’s E-Series protection relays are designed to support robust integration with Modbus TCP and DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ45, enabling streamlined data exchange and faster fault isolation. This combination delivers operational insight and improved uptime in power distribution networks, with emphasis on feeder protection, metering, and centralized control. Secondary benefits include installation flexibility and scalable communication options for future upgrades.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-5000-2B0CA0
Power supply range and compatibility → Flexibility to operate from 19-300VDC or 40-250VAC lowers installation hurdles and reduces inventory variety, enabling faster deployment across mixed systems and campuses. Application: feeder protection in substations and industrial plants; measurable outcome: faster commissioning and fewer voltage-related rework. I/O and monitoring density → With 16 inputs and 11 outputs, the EDR-5000-2B0CA0 accommodates extensive protection logic, metering, and annunciation without external adjuncts. Business impact: increased visibility into each feeder circuit and simplified wiring schemes for maintenance crews. Application: multi-feeder panels, data centers, and manufacturing lines. Communication and integration → Supports Modbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ45, enabling seamless SCADA integration and remote monitoring. Benefit: centralized control, reduced现场 visits, and accelerated fault diagnosis. Application: industrial automation networks and utility-style feeder schemes. Phase current flexibility → Phase current configurations of 5A and 1A adapt to common CT ratios, simplifying retrofits and ensuring precise protection coordination. Business impact: tighter coordination, minimized nuisance trips, and optimized protective curves. Application: power protection and metering applications across critical loads. I/O options and time synchronization → Trip Coil Monitor IRIG-B and removable terminals support easy maintenance and precise time stamping for coordinated protection. Benefit: improved coordination and event reconstruction. Application: synchronized fault logging in complex feeder arrays. Mounting and physical design → Semi-flush mounting with removable terminals simplifies installation and field servicing, reducing labor time during commissioning and upgrades. Application: OEM panels and retrofit projects where access and serviceability matter. Zone selective interlocking → Zone selective interlocking (ZSI) enhances fault isolation speed and reduces system-wide outages. Business impact: shorter downtime, improved system reliability, and safer restoration procedures. Application: modern feeder schemes with fast-tripping requirements. Sensing and protection coverage → Sensing inputs cover voltage, current, and metering across power protection and metering domains, enabling cohesive protection strategies in a single device.
