Solar panels and 10 GA wire?

I ended up buying a 2016 Arctic fox 25Y TT that has two 100 watt solar panels on it. I also have a Grape 160 watt solar panel that I was going to use a combiner box and put it on there. I just found out that the wire going to the Zamp controller is 10 GA. What problems is that going to cause? The run of the wire doesn't seem to be that long, maybe 8-10 feet. I thought they had 8 GA wire there, but I was wrong. Thanks for any answers.

360 watts is going to be about maxed out for that wire.
