Two 3 pole contactors is probably cheaper than a 6 pole, if you could find one. Try GE CR206L20GAZZ

Check 30-710(4) for the rating of the contactor. Appendix B refers to CSA C22.2 #14, which means nothing to me, but it might allow for a lower rating if the contactor is rated in HP. The rule is that for HID lighting, the rating must be double the ampere load.

ASCO makes lighting contactors with as many poles as you need. A mere 6 poles should be no problem at all.http://www.emersonnetworkpower.com/...LightingContactorsforBranchCircuits.aspx
