thanks again if you are able help
 
a little more explanation on what you want is in order
what exaclty are you trying to do?
 
What is this for?
What kind of voltages are being used?
What kind of currents are being used?
How often will it need to be changed over?
will changeover have to happen while live? if so will it have to happen under load?
how long is it tolerable for changeover to take?

I'm thinking either banks of relays or maybe some kind of rotary switch with a lot of switching layers (IIRC some manufacturers will sell you bare switches that you put your own shaft through so you can make a rotary switch with as many poles as you like)

Another possibility might be to use some form of plug and socket connection.

P.S. two way is an electricians term. The electronic components industry tends to use either "double throw" or "changeover".
