How do I choose a Victron MPPT?
First look at the datasheets of the solar panels to see what their maximum open circuit voltage is. Then multiply that by the number of panels that are in series in the array. The result of the multiplication must not be higher than the Maximum PV open circuit voltage as listed on the MPPT Datasheet.

Can you overload a MPPT?
Some MPPTs say you can over-panel by 30%. If you have have a 12 volt system, your SCC is only going to be around 600 watts for 12 volts, but to get to the full 1200 watts, needs to be 24 volts.
Can you overload a MPPT controller?
Overloading the charge controller with power from the solar array may damage the controller components, and it may lead to the melting of wires and damage to the system. Circuit breakers or fuses should be installed to prevent system damage and electrical fire.
