And if the manufacturer(on the UL label) specifies #6 wire
be used
for connection, it does NOT meet code if installed with #8 or
#10


Just stop. You're only digging the hole deeper.

UL labels specify voltage, amperage, wattage -- but when have
you seen one that specifies the size of the circuit conductors?

I thought the OP said the label on the unit gave the circuit
requirements and the cable specification. I could have misread
that. My reader does not make it easy to go back to previous
posts in a thread, so I'm going by memory.


Irrespective of what the OP may or may not have written, it's
pretty clear that you're not actually very familiar with what is,
or is not, on a UL label.
