I'm wiring a mini split, and the placard on the outdoor unit lists the following:

208/230V 20.0A
MINIMUM CIRCUIT AMPACITY 25.0A
Max.Fuse 40.0A

Can I use a 25A double pole breaker and 10 AWG? Or would that trip the breaker often? I'm confused about the 40A max fuse. Does this mean the max current the system runs at?

And what size quick disconnect should I use?

The distance to the panel is only about 15 feet.

Thanks.
