A multiple electric switch (30) is formed by inserting a plurality of electrical contacts in a plurality of spaced apart (20) holes in a base (14) of electrically non-conductive elastomeric material, in groups of two pairs per group, and mounting a control member (64) in the base for movement to move one of the pair of contacts (50) of a group resiliently into engagement with the other pair of contacts of the group, to effect closing of the electric switch. A second group of electrical contacts (52) are spaced apart in a circular pattern adjacent a circular, electrically conductive contact ring, and a cam member (70) on the base is rotatable to engage and move each of the contacts, one at a time, resiliently into engagement with the contact ring. The second group of contacts are included in the electric circuit of the first groups of contact pairs to effect control of multiple movement of each of a plurality of electric loads.
