Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B1CA0 is a robust feeder protection device designed for industrial power networks. It simplifies protection setpoints across multiple feeders, reducing fault isolation times and improving system availability. This relay supports Modbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ45, with 16 inputs and 11 outputs, enabling scalable protection and real-time monitoring. When selecting protection gear, verify manufacturer guidance on certifications and approvals, and consider CE compliance, SIL readiness, and enclosure IP ratings appropriate to your installation. In practice, users benefit from tighter protection coordination, remote configuration via PowerPort-E, and compatibility with modern OT/IT networks, delivering safer operations and lower lifecycle costs for data centers, manufacturing floors, and distribution sites.
