Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B1LB1 - 50/60 Hz
Part Number: EDR-5000-2B1LB1
Quick Summary
Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B1LB1 delivers robust feeder protection for industrial power networks. Engineers often wrestle with inconsistent fault reporting and costly wiring complexity when integrating protection relays across mixed voltage sources. In response, this device supports wide input ranges—19-300 VDC and 40-250 VAC—and networked communications via Mbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over LC duplex fiber, simplifying field installation and monitoring. While exact safety certifications vary by region, CE compliance and SIL-ready design are aligned with Eaton's protective-relay portfolio to support safe, compliant deployments in control panels and substation feeders. Completing the package, its conformal-coated boards, zone selective interlocking, and IRIG-B ground input enable reliable operation in harsh environments, reducing downtime and accelerating maintenance workflows.

FAQs
Begin with mounting the unit using projection mounting to fit standard control panels. Connect the 16 inputs and 11 outputs to the feeder circuits using removable terminals for quick replacement. Power the device with the wide input range of 19-300 VDC or 40-250 VAC. Configure communication (Mbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over LC duplex fiber) and enable zone selective interlocking. Ensure IRIG-B ground input is wired if needed for time stamping. This setup minimizes wiring errors, reduces commissioning time, and improves protection coordination.
The EDR-5000-2B1LB1 supports a wide power range (19-300 VDC and 40-250 VAC) and operates at 50/60 Hz. It provides 16 inputs and 11 outputs, with current sensing on one input channel and selectable phase currents of 5A and 1A. It also supports voltage protection and metering, current protection and metering, and power protection and metering. These specs enable precise protection, accurate metering, and reliable operation in mixed-voltage environments.
Yes. The device uses conformal-coated circuit boards to resist moisture and contaminants, and it offers projection mounting with removable terminals for rugged, quick maintenance. Its design supports panel installations in demanding environments, while features like IRIG-B ground input and zone selective interlocking enhance reliability and protection coordination in challenging electrical systems.
This relay excels in feeder protection, voltage and current protection, and metering within industrial power networks. Its fiber-based Modbus and DNP3 TCP communications enable robust remote monitoring and integration with SCADA systems. It is well-suited for substations, large switchgear, and plant feeders requiring centralized protection logic, metering accuracy, and fast fault reporting.
By consolidating protection, metering, and communication into a single device, the EDR-5000 reduces wiring complexity and panel space needs, cutting installation time.
