Is a 40 amp breaker to much null

Hello there! A 40-amp breaker is generally higher than what is typically required for the WSED3023B model. Most standard appliances of this type usually require a 30-amp breaker. Using a breaker with too high of a rating can be unsafe and may not provide the necessary protection for your appliance. We recommend consulting the installation manual or contacting a licensed electrician to ensure you have the correct breaker size for your specific model. If you need further assistance or have additional questions, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to help. We’re here to ensure everything is set up safely and correctly for you. —Avril

Specifications show that this unit draws 15.7 amps when used in broil mode, way less than that in typical oven mode. A 20 amp breaker devalued by 20% = 16 amps, so a 20 amp breaker should be suitable.
