Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-5000-2B1IA0
The device supports a wide input/output footprint, enabling flexible installation and future-proofing for evolving feeder configurations. Feature to business impact: the 16 inputs and 11 outputs support comprehensive protection logic and signaling, reducing wiring complexity and enabling scalable control schemes for larger electrical networks. Application: ideal for feeder protection in manufacturing facilities and data centers where reliability and quick fault isolation matter. The power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, coupled with 50/60 Hz operation, ensures compatibility with both DC bus and AC distribution systems, minimizing installation headaches and maximizing uptime. The removable terminals and semi-flush mounting simplify panel integration and serviceability, reducing commissioning time and maintenance costs. Zone selective interlocking (1) enhances selective tripping, lowering outage impact and improving overall power quality. I/O options such as IRIG-B, Trip Coil Monitor, and Sensitive Ground Input provide advanced fault detection scenarios, supporting safer, more granular protection schemes. Modbus/DNP3 via RS-485 and Ethernet RJ-45 enable seamless integration with existing SCADA and energy-management systems, delivering actionable insights and traceable event histories. Sensing inputs cover Current, Power, and Voltage Protection and Metering, aligning with industry practice for comprehensive protection coverage and accurate metering data. This combination addresses common objections about compatibility and interoperability by offering standard communication interfaces and widely-used protection features for robust, auditable protection strategies.

FAQs
The EDR-5000-2B1IA0 uses a semi-flush mounting method with removable terminals, designed for straightforward panel installation and serviceability. With 16 inputs and 11 outputs, you can wire a comprehensive protection scheme while keeping wiring neat and accessible. Plan for RS-485 or Ethernet networking to enable remote monitoring via Modbus or DNP3, and ensure your enclosure supports the device’s footprint and weight.
The unit supports Modbus and DNP3 communications over RS-485 and over Ethernet via RJ-45. This enables integration with common SCADA and energy-management systems, providing real-time status, event logging, and remote control capabilities that help reduce fault response times and streamline maintenance activities.
Power can be supplied in a wide range: 19-300 V DC or 40-250 V AC, with a frequency rating of 50/60 Hz. This broad compatibility supports both DC bus configurations and conventional AC distribution networks, reducing the need for multiple variants and simplifying logistics for mixed-voltage facilities.
Yes, the relay includes Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI) functionality, which helps coordinate protection across multiple feeders. This capability minimizes unnecessary tripping, confines outages to the faulted zone, and improves overall system reliability in complex power distribution architectures.
Warranty is defined by Eaton Selling Policy 25-000 as one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. For ongoing support, refer to the product datasheet and Eaton’s customer service channels to access technical resources, spare parts, and guidance on upgrades or compatibility with evolving protection schemes.
