Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B0FB0 provides versatile feeder protection for industrial power systems. Engineers often struggle with coordinating protection logic, remote monitoring, and reliable integration over fiber-optic links in demanding environments. Where applicable, seek certifications such as CE conformity, IP protection, and SIL-level safety verification from the manufacturer. This model supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber, 16 inputs, 11 outputs, and wide voltage ranges, enabling a scalable, cost-efficient protection scheme. By consolidating protection, metering, and remote reporting in a single unit, it reduces wiring complexity, speeds commissioning, and lowers maintenance costs across the plant.

FAQs

Begin with a semi-flush mounting approach and secure removable terminals for straightforward field service. Verify the 16 inputs and 11 outputs align with your feeder protection scheme, and connect the Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber for reliable remote signaling. Ensure proper power supply is provided within 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac and follow installation clearances per Eaton guidelines.
The relay supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications over fiber optic ST, enabling robust, low-noise data exchange with SCADA, historians, and protection coordination systems. This simplifies remote monitoring, event logging, and automated fault reporting across distributed facilities.
Yes. The model lists Zone Selective Interlocking with a value of 1, which supports coordinated protection by prioritizing fast, selective tripping for targeted feeders. This reduces fault energy and improves service continuity in substation and industrial feeder networks.
Compliance details are provided by the manufacturer. For many Eaton devices, typical considerations include CE markings, IP ratings, and SIL safety verification, but exact certifications should be confirmed with Eaton to ensure alignment with your project requirements and local regulations.
The device combines protection, metering, and remote communications in a single unit, reducing wiring complexity and panel space. Features like conformal coated boards, removable terminals, and IRIG-B monitoring support simplify maintenance, shorten outage windows, and improve overall plant reliability and asset visibility.
