Specifically a PT-10 or what use to be a PT-330. Will it handle it. Max current on the name plate is listed at 45 amps, largest motor at 40 Amps (240v). The phase converters are listed at 36A cont. I would guess it should work. What is your opinion. Thanks.

Not running mine on a PP, but there are stories abound of guys running Fadals on much smaller breakers than 40amp without issue.

There is me, running the VMC-15 with a PP.
I personally think they slightly over-rate the machine on amperage, as I recall I have the little VMC wired with #6 which is silly for what it is, but I followed the instructions, not knowing any better.
It also depends how hard you intend to run the machine. I don't run mine super hard. The spindle motor under a lot of load is what is going to pull the max amps.
