I have a PCM60X charge controller. It is rated for 3200w when using a 48V battery system. The max charge current is 60A. It has a charge current setting you can change if you want it less than that, but my is set to the max of 60A. Is it okay to connect panels which have a total rated output of 3840w to the controller? The way I see it, it's not going to charge above 60A anyway so if it reaches 60A, it's just going to waste/not use the remaining energy on the PV side.
Or is this generally a bad idea?
Thanks.
