Overview
The Victron Energy Quattro is similar to the MultiPlus in that they are both a combined inverter charger. However, the Quattro is able to accept two AC inputs and automatically connect to their active source. For example, it can be connected to shore side power and a generator or even two separate generators. It is also a true sine wave inverter boasts adaptive charging as well as many other features.
Another fantastic feature of the Quattro is the main output has no-break functionality. Therefore, in the event of a grid failure or similarly if the shore or generator power has been disconnected, the Quattro takes over the supply to the connected loads (in less than 20 milliseconds). Since this happens so fast your electronics like computers will continue to operate without disruption! The second output is live only when AC is available on one of the inputs of the Quattro. Loads that should not discharge the battery, such as air-conditioning or a water heater can be connected to this output.

How to read this datasheet
Detailed specifications for Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger have not been published yet. Victron Energy lists this inverter in the Inverters, and we add fields as the manufacturer releases them — in the meantime, ask your distributor for the datasheet before ordering.
For an inverter, the figures that matter most are maximum PV input and the number of MPPT trackers, which set how many panel strings you can connect, the MPPT voltage window, which decides how many panels go in a string, peak and weighted (European/CEC) efficiency, typically 96–98.5% and topology — on-grid, off-grid, hybrid or micro. It is the component that decides what a solar system can do: how much power you can draw at once, whether you can export to the grid, whether the system keeps running in a blackout, and how well the panels and battery are managed day to day.
What to check before ordering
The checks below apply to any inverter. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.
- Look at the warranty term and what it covers. Five years is the common baseline, ten is offered by stronger brands, and extensions are often cheaper bought with the unit than later.
- Size the inverter against the loads you need to run simultaneously, not against the total wattage of every appliance in the building — a 5 kW inverter comfortably runs a fridge, fans, lights and a couple of ACs, but not all of them plus a water pump starting at the same time.
- Keep the panel array between roughly 1.0 and 1.3 times the inverter's rating. Slight oversizing (a higher DC-to-AC ratio) captures more energy on cloudy mornings and winter days; going far beyond it wastes generation through clipping.
- Check the surge rating if you run motors — deep-well pumps, compressors and older air conditioners can draw two to three times their running current for a few seconds at start-up.
Where buyers lose money
- Buying on peak-watt price alone. A cheap inverter with a narrow MPPT window forces awkward string layouts and can strand a portion of the array.
- Ignoring the ambient temperature rating. Inverters derate in heat, so a unit rated 5 kW at 25 °C may deliver noticeably less on a hot roof-adjacent wall at 45 °C.
- Assuming any grid-tie inverter keeps the lights on during an outage. Standard on-grid units shut down for safety unless they have a dedicated backup or islanding output.
Price and availability
Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger is listed at $ 2,351 (USD). Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.
SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in your country: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Victron Energy locally before ordering.
Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger — frequently asked questions
How much does Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger cost?
Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger is listed at $ 2,351 (USD). The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.
Who makes Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger?
Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger is a Victron Energy product, listed under inverters with model reference QUA485021100. The Victron Energy brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.
Is Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger right for my system?
That depends on what it has to connect to. For an inverter, check maximum PV input and the number of MPPT trackers, which set how many panel strings you can connect, the MPPT voltage window, which decides how many panels go in a string and peak and weighted (European/CEC) efficiency, typically 96–98.5% against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Size the inverter against the loads you need to run simultaneously, not against the total wattage of every appliance in the building — a 5 kW inverter comfortably runs a fridge, fans, lights and a couple of ACs, but not all of them plus a water pump starting at the same time.
Where can I buy Victron Energy Quattro - 48V/5000VA/70A-100/100/120V +50A aux Inverter/Charger?
SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
