If both elements are capable of heating at the same time I would see a 11kw load at 46 amps. That would require a 60 A circuit with #4's. I can't remember offhand (I don't deal with type of install at the mill) if you can use a 30A circuit IF its connected for only ONE element to heat at once. Anyone feel free to correct me as its been awhile.
