Actually, it will matter, though it shouldn't hurt anything. On the 5kw, I believe one breaker is a 20 amp, the other a 30 amp. The 20 should typically just feed the rear air conditioner, the 30 will feed the rest of the coach. You just want to make sure the whole coach is being fed from the 30.
his unit is only 40 amp according to the tag. so, should be 20/20.

I can almost guarantee it is 30/20- simply because this model was meant to power the rig plus a second air conditioner- the output breakers actually have a capacity above the genset itself. The second circuit with only the a/c will have a load of under 15 amps, so the main circuit could carry well over 20 amps, and with only a single a/c running, you would want all 30 amps available on the main line.
I'm not sure about the brown wire though...
