Is exceeding the maximum power an issue for solar panels and

Say I have a solar panel setup which can produce a total of 16 kW peak. With an inverter that has a maximum PV input of 6kW, would this be an issue that could lead to defects?

Exceeding Inverter Limits

The general rule of thumb is that your inverter Max Input voltage must be greater than Voc x 1.2, otherwise the inverter will shut down (if you are very lucky) or fry (more likely).
