Eaton Specification Sheet - ETR-5000-2A0BA1
RS-485 communications with Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU enables seamless SCADA integration and remote diagnostics, improving fault visibility and reducing MTTR across plant fleets. This translates to faster troubleshooting and more reliable transformer protection in substations and OEM equipment, while supporting standardized data models for easier asset management. The unit provides eight digital inputs, nine digital outputs, and two current sensing inputs, delivering flexible protection logic and control sequencing. In practice, this enables precise trip coordination, zone-selective interlocking, and metering with clear operational visibility, reducing nuisance trips and improving safety. Power supply versatility supports 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac with 50/60 Hz operation, simplifying installation in mixed-voltage environments and cutting wiring complexity. Removable terminals and projection mounting simplify field wiring and future maintenance, especially when swapping out legacy relays or upgrading protection schemes. I/O options, including IRIG-B Trip Coil Monitor and URTD Interface, along with the base-ECR compatibility (ETR-4000), streamline retrofits and panel integration. The device carries Eaton’s warranty policy (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) and provides access to specification sheets and technical resources for ongoing support.

FAQs
Install the ETR-5000-2A0BA1 using its removable terminals and projection mounting for fast wiring and straightforward panel integration. Ensure alignment with the base relay architecture (ETR-4000) when retrofitting, and connect the eight digital inputs and nine digital outputs to the control logic. Use RS-485 for Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communication to link with SCADA and protection schemes.
The relay supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485, enabling standard, interoperable data exchange with SCADA, energy meters, and protection coordination systems. When configuring, ensure proper bus termination, correct device addressing, and mapping of protection signals to your SCADA tags to maximize visibility and reduce diagnostic time.
Yes, the device is rated for 50/60 Hz operation. It accepts a wide power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, allowing installation in diverse regional networks without extensive power conditioning. This flexibility supports multi-site deployments and simplifies procurement for mixed-installation environments.
The unit provides eight digital inputs and nine digital outputs, plus two current sensing inputs for comprehensive protection logic.
