Ip22 charger 12v 30a

I'm looking to install a Victron IP22 12v 30a charger.

•I'm having trouble determining if if it will work to charge my battery bank. Or if the Battery bank is to large (552ah total)

• And do I need the version with one output or the one that has 3 outputs?

• Assuming I use the charger with 1 output, Do I connect it to the Buss Bars or directly to the main 2 battery post that feeds the system?

Also I see 6awg pure oxygen free wire is recommended. But do I go larger to let's say 4awg since it's connecting to a large bank(552ah)?


* INFO ON THE SETUP I HAVE *

FOUR 12V 138AH lithium batteries wired in parallel. (552ah total)

Main power and ground cables from batt go to the power and ground Buss Bars. Which all components meet at.

VICTRON battery monitor with shunt before the ground Buss bar.

Victron 100/50 solar charge controller

Victron 30a Orion Dc to Dc charger (from alternator to buss bar)

2000w Renogy pure sine wave inverter

Proper circuit breakers ect....


I been running this setup for 10 months on the road in my sprinter with zero issues. But I decided it's time to add a shore power charger. But I am having the hardest time determining what is the proper one for my set up. I have not been able to find any phones numbers to directly ask Victron the question. Please help. Thanks in advance.
