Hello, I am building a SET utilizing a 3C24 tube and Monolith output transformers. There are different connections for 4/8/16Ω outputs. I'd like to be able to switch between the different taps. I'm planning on individual binding posts but want to switch the different connections shown below.
I want to use a single throw/triple pole switch so as to change the connections for the 16Ω wiring shown.
A to C will be on one pole (one side of the "throw")
B to D will be another pole ( same as above)
B to C will be on the third pole on the other "throw"
My question is will the Carling Miniature Switch be adequate for the task. The amp will put out about 5-6 watts and the switch is rated for 5A@125VAC or 28VDC.
Is there a better solution?

That's fine, the switch will only conduct around 1A or so at most, on peaks.
Just avoid the R gold contacts (the letter just before the final E in the part number),
which have no silver.

The ones I have are silver over copper on the movable contact and silver over nickel on the terminal side. Thanks!
