I'm doing commercial project, because of energy code we need to install automatic timer switch. I'm looking for multi circuit timer.

Some mechanical time clocks have multiple independent line voltage contact sets. (At least three.)
Or use one set of contacts to drive one or more multpole contactors.
Are you looking for something that can fit into a single or multi-gang device box?

You want a preset timer switch that someone physically initiates or an astronomical time clock?

Why all the questions? He already told you needs a timer that has multi-circuit to light up whatever part of a building of whatever size it is. :lol:

Now that is funny!! :p

I recommend you google either Grasslin or Omron time clocks. They are leaders in these types of products that can provide multiple timed circuits (channels) that can drive individual contactors to serve as many loads as you want.

No offense but the OP said it was a commercial application and I have never seen
Leviton used in anything other than residential settings.

Leviton has a pretty extensive commercial controls line.
