I'm not sure what this means, but if you're running two 120v circuits
using 12-3 from a pair of 20A breakers, make sure the breaker handles
are tied together such that both trip if either one trips.
NO! He wants two separate circuits for different rows of lights. If
one blows, your way would have him in complete darkness instantly.
Then don't recommend an edison circuit to him, which Lew apparently did.
Run a separate 120V to a single bulb in the center of the shop.

The system will be down for 10 days for preventive maintenance.
