The contactors I have used before usually just have N/O and N/C contacts rather than C/O, but you can wire one side of one pair of each to give a 'common', this will then give you the C/O function.
 
Normally as Phil above says, you would use two N/O contactors mechanically interlocked for larger currents, often these have timers controlling the C/O times, especially if it is for automatic transfer switches

As Tony said what is the intended application ?

For smaller applications (circa 10A or so), to provide an always supply for controls etc. I have used Schneider/Merlin 3NO/2NC contactors wired as I suggested above.
 
If this Auto changeover system is being used as a power supply transfer switch, between two separate supplies (Eg, Utility Power and Generator Power) you will need a ''4 Pole change over switch, never use a 3 pole in such situations....

Can't and won't comment any further, until you give us some idea what this change over switch is being used for??
