Eaton EDR-5000-2B0FA1 Distribution Relay - Modbus RTU over Fiber

Flexible power input and wide range: The unit operates from 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac at 50/60 Hz, enabling seamless integration with existing electrical infrastructure. This reduces the need for auxiliary power conditioning and speeds up retrofits, making it ideal for feeder protection in industrial plants and substations. The business impact is measurable in streamlined commissioning and reduced field engineering time. Removable terminals and projection mounting: With 16 inputs and 11 outputs, plus removable terminals, installation becomes faster and maintenance simpler. The result is lower wiring costs, easier diagnostic access in busy switchgear, and improved reliability in critical feeder circuits used in manufacturing lines and utilities-like environments. Secure fiber communications and interoperability: Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber optic ST provides robust, low-latency remote monitoring and SCADA integration. This supports secure data exchange with control systems and remote substations, reducing site visits and enabling faster fault localization in power distribution networks. Comprehensive protection and metering functions: Voltage protection and metering, current protection and metering, and power protection and metering deliver precise, time-aligned measurements for selective tripping and fault isolation. These capabilities support compliant protective schemes in heavy industries and large facilities. Time synchronization and interlocking features: Trip Coil Monitor IRIG-B and Zone selective interlocking (1 zone) help minimize fault energy and coordinate breaker operation across feeders, improving system stability in renewable-heavy or high-load plants. Industry-ready to install and scale: Compatible with the EDR-5000 base family and designed for feeders, this relay simplifies expansion as plant protection needs evolve, while maintaining consistent engineering documentation and serviceability.
