Comment:

 There are two filters which can be used for this task

 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/excerpt_length/ and
 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/excerpt_more/

 If a different setting is needed for different elements then a conditional
 statement can be used within the filters.
