Eaton generator relay EGR-5000-2A1LB0 - Mbus TCP / DNP3 Enet
Part Number: EGR-5000-2A1LB0
Quick Summary
Eaton generator relay protects industrial generators during startup and operation. This device is designed to prevent faults from escalating into outages, helping you maintain uptime in mission-critical power systems. While many protection relays require complex configuration, the EGR-5000-2A1LB0 simplifies integration with its 16 digital inputs, 9 outputs, and 2 current sensing inputs, all within a wide power range. Compliances are specified by the manufacturer; reviewers typically look for CE and UL listings and enclosure IP ratings depending on installation. For procurement and installation teams, this translates to faster commissioning and reduced risk, while electrical professionals benefit from robust, field-proven protection with Ethernet-enabled monitoring and flexible I/O options.

FAQs
Yes. The EGR-5000-2A1LB0 features removable terminals and semi-flush mounting, 16 digital inputs and 9 outputs, and a wide power supply range (19-300 Vdc, 40-250 Vac). This makes it straightforward to retrofit into current power cabinets and synchronize with existing protection schemes, minimizing cabinet rework and wiring labor.
It offers generator protection with multiple sensing inputs (2 current sensing inputs, 16 DI, 9 DO), Trip Coil Monitor, and a Sensitive Ground Input option. The device supports Mbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over Enet, enabling remote supervision and fast fault indication, reducing response times and improving reliability in critical applications.
Yes. Its wide input range, robust protection logic, and Ethernet-enabled communications align well with data center needs for uptime and visibility. The 50/60 Hz compatibility, along with configurable protection and metering, supports seamless integration with data center monitoring and automated maintenance routines.
The manufacturer specifies compliance details separately; the listing shows 'Compliances: Contact Manufacturer'. In practice, users typically verify CE, UL/ULc, and IP ratings through Eaton’s documentation for the final installation, ensuring alignment with regional electrical standards and enclosure protection requirements.
By providing precise protection coordination, reduced false trips, and Ethernet-based monitoring, this relay helps minimize unplanned outages and enables predictive maintenance. Its conformal coating and robust physical design lower maintenance costs, while faster commissioning and easier upgrades cut engineering effort and downtime during expansion or relocation.
