My questions is amp sizing for a subpanel. I am looking to install a subpanel (30ft away from main) that would be used to connect two identical 2-ton condensing units 230V for two 5-door drinks coolers next to each other in a market. The label for each condensing unit indicates the following: RLA = 15.7, LRA = 68.0, MINIMUM CIRCUIT AMP = 21.0. AMPS.MAX.BRANCH CIRCUIT FUSE = 40.

What size double pole breaker (and wire size) do I use for the subpanel? Do I add both max circuit fuse (80A)?
