I have a air-conditioning unit that is protected by a Safety Disconnect switch that is rated for 240V/60A. This device is further protected upstream by a two-pole circuit breaker that is rated for 240V at my panel. I have 2 questions.
1) The two-pole CB has 30 on each half of the handle. Does this mean the CB is rated for 60A total?
2) Since the Safety Disconnect is already protected by the CB, does it matter what "Interrupting Rating" I need to purchase for the Safety Disconnect?
