Limit mppt output current

Hi, All

Can I limit the 150/70 mppt max output current to 60A ? Not in DVCC, juts directly from MPPT setting. I donot think I can. For some reason, we need CAN bus MPPT, and the min available in victron i 150/70b, but we want it output below 60 A , so we can connect a 63A breaker.


Thanks

63A breaker isn't enough. Your breaker should be 1.25X the anticipated continuous current.

Victron connect in demo mode indicates you can reduce the current:

I used to do it regularly on my 150/100 before I enabled DVCC.
