Interesting Note: The word 'simultaneous' has been added to the 2011 [430.24] ex.3 for separate interlocked motor control that can allow the same branch circuit for multiple garage door openers. This has been a question in the past for using different RF channel controls, AHJ permitted, as an interlock energizing one door opener at a time on a common branch circuit .
