FAQs
Yes. The EGR-5000-2A0KA1 is designed as a generator protection relay in Eaton's lineup and can be integrated into existing protection schemes. It supports differential protection, voltage/current protection, and metering, and its 16 digital inputs and 9 outputs enable seamless wiring to control systems. Always verify compatibility with your specific control philosophy and panel wiring diagrams during installation.
Key specifications include 16 digital inputs, 9 outputs, 2 current sensing inputs, and phase current sensing options of 5A and 1A. The device supports power supply ranges of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, with operation at 50/60 Hz. Terminals are removable for ease of wiring, and the unit uses projection mounting for secure panel installation.
The relay provides differential protection, voltage protection and metering, current protection and metering, and power protection and metering, along with Trip Coil Monitoring and an URTD interface. It is best applied in generator protection for industrial facilities, data centers, and manufacturing plants where fast, coordinated trips and accurate metering are required to minimize downtime and material damage.
Compliance is listed as 'Contact Manufacturer' in the data, so you should verify the exact certifications with Eaton for your region and installation. Typical considerations include CE-related compliance, protection ratings, and any SIL readiness or IP-related configurations applicable to your environment. Always consult the latest Eaton datasheet and local regulatory requirements before procurement.
By consolidating multiple protection functions into a single, configurable device, the EGR-5000-2A0KA1 reduces equipment footprint, wiring complexity, and commissioning time, leading to faster fault isolation and reduced outage durations. The removable terminals simplify maintenance, while built-in metering supports better operational insight and preventive maintenance planning, contributing to lower lifecycle costs over time.
