yep I leave it at the 42a and it hasn't tripped the breaker. So 8kw is normal for 50A?
42 amp is even too high for a 50 amp breaker. Continuous load should only be 80% of the circuit so a 30 amp circuit you should pull at 24amps and a 50 at 40amps.

You should check the wiring on that 30amp circuit to see what it can handle, you are overcooking that circuit and it could be a fire hazard.
