A customer wants to install (30) 1HP/4.3A, 240V, 1Ø fans on each steel column of a long industrial facility. Particularly because of limited breaker spaces available, I'd like to group these onto a few 40 or 50A circuits. I reckon I'd then have to use something like a non-fused switch or air conditioning-style pull out disconnect at each fan. It seems kind of overkill for small fans. Is there a better way or something simple I'm missing?
BTW, they want all the fans controlled at one location, so I'm planning on using several contactors with a control switch or timer.
