Trevor, I know all this. I am just saying the NEC states we can do it but if the manufacturer says something else don't we have to follow their specs. It did say 55 amps. If it just said 13.3kw I would have no argument.
Do the manufacturers instructions state that you need to use a 55 amp circuit? If so then I agree with you but if not unless there's a code section that says to avoid using T220.55 and use the ampacity listed on the appliance I see no reason why you need to use the 55 amps.
