The MultiPlus 24/5000/120-100 230V is a Victron inverter and charger for a 24 V battery bank with a 230 VAC output. It is rated 5,000 VA, delivers 4,000 W continuous at 25°C and peaks at 10,000 W. The charger puts out up to 120 A and the transfer switch is rated 100 A. Continuous output falls to 3,000 W at 65°C.

Our take

This MultiPlus gives 4,000 W continuous at 25°C but only 3,000 W at 65°C, so a warm install should be sized to the lower figure. Its output is 230 VAC, so the loads it feeds must be 230 V types.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
