I almost overlook that you guys are from Cananda area but true i understand that with multi speed motors it can be treated as seperated circuit but IMO i may disagree with you for a sec so bear with me a min.
speaking of the numbers of circuits going to the equmentit which it will be used and any motor or device need to be service it must have a disconnect switch if not in sight of power source IE. breaker box or MCC or Motor starter contractor assambley. [ i am not sure if your in sight of disconnect switch limited to 25 Metres? correct me if i am wrong here ]
and for that equment it should able disconnect the power simuiotaly [ sp ]
normally in USA verison for 2 speed motors[ 2 winding type ] normally 6 pole disconnect switch will serve the purpose here
[ ditto the European area as well ]
Merci, Marc
