Hi, I'm looking for a replacement method for performing the manual switching shown in the diagram below. There are 6 rotary switches with 6 inputs and one output for each.

Thanks for looking everyone.

Can you tell us a little more about the nature of what you are switching?
Power DC/AC ,Audio, Digital Signals

This would be of some help and will speed up replies.
 
what is being switched.

Sorry about that, 12-20 vdc @ 10amps is what needs to be switched both the positive and negative line.

Thanks
Brent
 
The switch contacts themselves could be replaced with
solid state relays, though these are expensive mind you.

Hopefully somebody else might a cheaper alternative
using power MOSFET's , one of the circuit archives across
the web may yield good circuit.

The switch action / control is a fairly simple matter using
a 4017 ic can drive each relay group in sequence from a single
push button.
 
MOSFET Solution

The MOSFET solution would be a cheaper one and if anyone has something that uses MOSFETs please point me in that direction. Thanks everyone.
