The thing about kilns is they are very demanding current wise in the sense that they draw full current for hours at a time while getting up to temperature so the supply cable must really be adequate for this. While you would be getting circa 20a per phase on three phase you would notionally be drawing 52 amps on a single phase. The last kiln I put in it seemed by calculation I should use 6mm for a 35a load. I went up to 10mm as the manufacturer recommended that size.
