You cannot get residential 30 amp recepticals, except for RV plugs and 240 recepticals. You can run two 15 amp circuits, one 20, or two 20 amps, but 20 is as high as a 120v recepticle goes.

Here is the drawing I forgot to attach. This is showing two 15 amp circuits on one outlet.
As for the 240, you likely don't have 3 phase in your house, that would be expensive as fuck. Your motor will likely have a 3 phase and single phase diagram on it, if not your 3 phase motor will not work on 240v single phase.

I would go with a 30 amp circuit on the 240 for your 5hp motor. This would allow for upgrades down the road and won't cost much more.
