xVictron MultiPlus 24/5000/120-100 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger — PMP245021010
The Victron MultiPlus 24/5000/120-100 is a combined inverter and battery charger in a single unit, designed for off-grid, backup and marine or vehicle power systems operating on a 24V battery bank. It delivers 5000VA of continuous AC output at 230V and provides 120A of DC charging current, making it suited to demanding installations where both inversion and charging capacity matter.
Key Features
- 5000VA continuous inverter output at 230V AC, with a peak surge capacity to handle motor start loads and compressors.
- 120A battery charger with adaptive charge algorithm, automatically adjusting to battery condition and type.
- 100A AC transfer switch allows connection of a shore power or generator input, switching automatically when AC is available.
- VE.Bus communication interface enables system integration with other Victron devices, including Quattro units, CCGX and GX displays, and Venus OS.
- PowerControl and PowerAssist functions limit AC input draw and supplement it with battery power, preventing generator or shore supply overload.
- Supports parallel and three-phase operation: multiple units can be combined for higher output or split-phase and three-phase configurations.
- Compatible with a wide range of battery chemistries including lead-acid (flooded, gel, AGM) and lithium-ion via programmable charge profiles.
Product Overview
The MultiPlus combines a true sine wave inverter with a multi-stage battery charger. When AC input is present (from shore power or a generator), the unit charges the battery bank and passes AC through to connected loads via the transfer switch. When AC input is lost or disconnected, it switches to inverter mode in under 20 milliseconds, fast enough to keep most sensitive equipment running without interruption. This makes it a practical choice for backup power systems as well as primary off-grid installations.
PowerAssist is a particularly useful feature in generator-based systems. It allows the generator to be sized for average load rather than peak demand: when loads exceed the generator's rated output, the MultiPlus draws the shortfall from the battery bank. This reduces fuel consumption and allows a smaller, quieter generator to be used without risk of overload. PowerControl performs a similar function on shore power connections with a fixed current limit.
VE.Bus connectivity means the MultiPlus integrates directly into a Victron system. It can be monitored and configured remotely via a GX device and the VRM portal, and it supports firmware updates over the network. For larger installations, up to six units can be paralleled for up to 30kVA output, or configured in three-phase groups of three.

Installation Notes
The MultiPlus 24/5000/120-100 operates at high DC currents and must be installed by a qualified electrician or accredited installer. DC cabling, fusing and busbar sizing must be appropriate for the current demands of a 5000VA 24V inverter. For any grid-connected or generator-tied application in the UK, ensure compliance with current wiring regulations and consult your DNO where required. Lithium battery integration requires correct charge profile configuration via VEConfigure or the GX device interface. At 32 kg, the unit requires secure wall or rack mounting with adequate ventilation clearance.
