Default Is 10 gauge wire enough to run compressor?

wonder what breaker hes useing with that 10 wire... i think 30amp is
the biggest breaker reccomended. i think according to chart he should
have used 4 number 8 wires to his garage to wire up a new breaker pannel
,,and have a 50 amp breaker on it at the house where it connects........
i think that guy reccomending 50 wire is jokeing.. have wired up several
garages with 4 #8 wires and have worked well.lucas
