Spinoff, but what would be causing my breaker to trip with a new 4 ton unit installed last week? Breaker is 30 amp and trips daily after the unit runs for 6-8 hours. Previously had a 3.5 ton unit with no issues. Is the 30amp breaker to small?

Have the installer back out. It could be a loose wire or another fault somewhere. The breaker is doing it's job. It's keeping your home safe.

go back and tighten down all of the lugs on the various connections on the ac unit. could be a loose connection.
