Thanks msturtz,
the QD 8000 is configured for 120 V only.
and my breaker panel is rated for 100amps with two 50amp breakers.
I just did a little research. It uses a dual pole 35 AMP breaker. This means it is a 240 split phase unit. That said, depending on your QD 6000 unit may have split phase as well. However you still need to upgrade your wiring. Please understand that the 240 VAC isn't used or listed on the manual. However it is critical to understand how this is wired so you don't electrocute yourself or damage your RV or equipment.
my onan has two 30 amp breakers too but it's only 30 volt they are basically wired together fed off the same winding.
Just so you know.. However at 5500 watts it does not matter.
