Quick Question: Are set bonuses considered enchantments?

LuxLunae

I asked this because of the "increases enchantment effects by 8%" portion.

No, set bonuses aren't increased by the Infused trait. Only enchantments.

For the purpose of the question, no. The effects of a set bonus is a magickal characteristic imbued (and stone carved) to it.

However, although I never saw it, some sets, maybe specifically when weapons, might have its characteristics boosted, like... an Infused Master/Maelstrom weapon, if such thing exists.

Set bonuses are not enchantments, the amount of bonus you get is based on whatever your lowest quality equipped piece grants. Say you have 4/5 Pieces that are Purple quality giving you 60 regen, but you have the 5th piece green quality giving you 40 regen; the entire set will give you only that 40 regen as its your lowest quality piece. To get the 60 regen you have to have all 5 pieces equipped purple or higher.

Infused has no effect on set bonuses.

Level and quality are afaik the only factor that affect trait bonuses.

Also, it's worth mentioning that set bonuses do scale up quite a bit in battle leveled zones such as all DLC, vet scaled dungeons and cyrodil. So if your crafting/buying gear for PvP for a low level character especially you will notice the bonuses to be greater in cyrodil and other zones where your character is "battle leveled".
