The potential problem lies within the second part of the rule.

<R39>B. Each relay module branch circuit must be protected with one and only one 20-amp circuit breaker on the PD Board. No other electrical load can be connected to the breaker supplying this circuit.

Perhaps if you provided a circuit diagram or:
  1. explained what two relays are doing in a singe circuit that one couldn't do, or
  2. explained why the relays can't connect to separate 20A ports on the PD board
