Looking to install a self contained indoor sauna.

Install instructions list #10 Cu wire and a 6 KW power requirement.

Does the 125% rule apply to this type of install?

If so, I’m seeing #8 Cu and a 35 amp breaker.

6000/240=25 amps. Since this is not a continuous load #10 on a 30 amp circuit would work.
