Hobbiest here trying to make a rotary switching system to switch between a 1000w DC power supply and an external DC supply of the same input plus an all turned off position. The first power supply is running at 12 vDC and the 2nd input could be anything from 8-36 vDC. I can find rotary switches that have the positions and layouts I want but nothing that can handle the loads I would put the switch under.
I guess my question is what would a real engineer do, I was thinking of putting a solenoid in but I don't have any experience with then so before I bit off more then I could chew I thought I'd come ask the experts.
Thanks in advance.
