Their product page pairs the 36-amp draw with a 40-amp breaker and #8 wire on a NEMA 6-50R. Their own printed ceramic wiring table gives this model #6 wire and a 50-amp fuse. A kiln is a continuous load, so the breaker must be at least 125% of the draw — 45 amps — which rules the 40-amp figure out, and a 6-50R is a 50-amp device that does not belong on a 40-amp circuit. Rather than print a number that may be wrong, we have asked the factory. Call or email us before you wire anything and we will give you what they confirm.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"d-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"d-q\"\u003eWhat is safe to rely on?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"d-a\"\u003e240V single phase, 36A, 8,640W and a NEMA 6-50R receptacle.
