Default Need electrical advice

Asking for help.
Have a General 350 table saw not currently hooked up.
Will be moving it to a barn/workshop.
Motor specs a 3 HP, 220 V, 1 Ph., 11.7 A
Will 10/3 w/ground and a 30 A 220 breaker satisfy the load requirement?
Thanks for any help.

Yes, but its overkill. You only need two conductors and ground, and 20 amp
double pole breaker is more than sufficient
