xVictron MultiPlus Compact 12/2000/80-30 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger
The Victron MultiPlus Compact 12/2000/80-30 is a combined inverter and battery charger in a single unit, designed for 12V battery systems with a 2000VA inverter output and an 80A battery charger. It is aimed at professional installers working on marine, vehicle, off-grid and backup power applications where space and weight are a consideration.
Key Features
- 2000VA continuous inverter output with a 12V DC input, producing 230V AC output at 50Hz.
- 80A three-stage battery charger (bulk, absorption, float) with adaptive charge algorithm.
- 30A AC transfer switch for seamless changeover between shore/generator power and inverter output.
- PowerAssist function allows the unit to supplement shore or generator power, preventing overload of a limited AC source.
- VE.Bus communication interface for system integration, remote monitoring and parallel or three-phase configuration with other Victron units.
- Compact form factor with a weight of 14.3 kg, suited to installations where space is restricted.
- Compatible with Victron GX devices and the VRM online monitoring portal for remote system oversight.
Product Overview
The MultiPlus Compact combines a pure sine wave inverter with a high-current battery charger in one housing. The 2000VA output is sufficient for most domestic loads in a boat, motorhome or off-grid cabin, and the unit will automatically switch to inverter mode within 20 milliseconds of detecting a loss of AC input, making it suitable for UPS-style backup applications.
The 80A charger uses Victron's adaptive charge algorithm, which adjusts the charge curve based on battery behaviour. This is particularly useful in mixed-use installations where charge time and battery condition vary. The 30A transfer switch handles the connection between an external AC source (shore power or generator) and the loads, so no separate changeover switch is required.
VE.Bus connectivity allows the MultiPlus Compact to be configured and monitored via Victron's MK3-USB interface and VEConfigure software. It can also be integrated into a larger Victron system using a GX device such as the Cerbo GX, enabling full system monitoring through the VRM portal. Multiple units can be connected in parallel for increased capacity where the installation demands it.

Installation Notes
Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or accredited installer familiar with DC battery systems and 230V AC wiring. The unit must be connected to a correctly rated 12V battery bank with appropriate DC cabling and fusing. VE.Bus configuration requires the Victron MK3-USB interface and VEConfigure software. For any grid-connected or generator-tied applications, ensure compliance with applicable UK wiring regulations and, where relevant, G98 or G99 requirements. Do not install in an enclosed, unventilated space.
