Again, it's law only to the extent that the county (a) has adopted it,
(b) that it's remotely current (no pun intended) and (c) there are
permits with inspections after the install.
None of that exists here, I presume it's similar in other counties as
well. The only factor after that is the insurance company, which may
choose to EXCEED the existing code(s) which directly affects the pocketbook.
However, I CHOOSE to follow the code because it's good sense. Any
contractor I hire is required (by me) to do the same.

I would also suggest using three - #10 with ground as the line from
the breakers to the amp operating position.
Not only a suggestion -- it's the law! Electrical Codes carry the
force of law, and they require that the equipment ground must 1) run
with the current carrying conductors and 2) must be no smaller than
the largest conductor.
