As Howard says that is far too high a charge rate, the maximum output of a C35 dynamo is 8 amps and continued use at such a high rate will burn out the armature necessitating a rewind. I assume that you have a C35 dynamo like this
for which this is the wiring diagram

. The output is controlled by the third brush which is narrow than the other two and can be rotated in the direction of rotation to increase output and vice versa it is shown here in dismantled state
in the high charge position. It can be moved with the dynamo assembled in the car, if you are unsure of things find a knowledgeable owner to help.
