Standard
Optimized for off-the-grid / energy efficiency
KEY FEATURE:
The inverter and shore power are provided by two separate devices. No transfer switch to bypass the inverter when plugged to shore power.
MORE FEATURES:
- BATTERY BANK: 100Ah and up (one or more batteries)
- SOLAR: None or up to 700W
- ALTERNATOR: None or up to 60A
- SHORE: None or up to 80A DC
- AC IN: 15A (normal house outlet)
- INVERTER: None, 1000W, 1500W or 2000W
- TRANSFER SWITCH: None
- 120V AC Distribution Panel: None (loads are connected directly to the inverter)
CHOOSE THIS DIAGRAM IF:
- Your build has modest 120V needs (no device above 1,650W).
- You’re mostly off-the-grid (occasionally plug into shore power).
- You’re tracking your budget. Some components (bus bars, cables, switch, fuses,etc.) in this diagram are cheaper (and smaller) because they’re rated for lower current.
- Maybe you don’t need shore power or inverter at all?

High-Power
Optimized for high-power devices (induction cooktop, microwave, etc.)
KEY FEATURE:
The inverter, shore power and transfer switch are combined into a single device (Victron Multiplus).
MORE FEATURES:
- BATTERY BANK: 200Ah and up (two or more batteries)
- SOLAR: None or up to 700W
- ALTERNATOR: None or up to 60A
- SHORE: up to 120A DC
- AC IN: 30A (campground hookup) or 15A (normal house outlet, via adapter)
- INVERTER: 2000W or 3000W
- TRANSFER SWITCH: Yes (automatically bypass inverter when plugged into shore)
- 120V AC Distribution Panel: Yes (each load is protected by an appropriate breaker)
CHOOSE THIS DIAGRAM IF:
- Your build includes any high-power device: air conditioning, induction cooktop, electric water heater, electric space heater, etc.
- You frequently plug into shore power (serviced campgrounds).
- You simply prefer an inverter/charger (Victron) instead of a separate inverter & battery charger.
