Just use a change-over contact of the relays. Electrical will probably point out that the family code is different and ask to change this. You can add an auxiliary to nearly everything.

i did as per your guide, but the pop up is coming " Alert: too many contact references", for your information i'm using lookup (merlin gerin catalouge : 18789) that mean the contact available is 1,2,3,4),
let say i hav to add 2 nos of changeover contact which is "11,12,14; 21,22,24" ?

I'm assuming you have ACE2008. What you want you can do automaticly when selecting catalog item. Go to component-> cross-reference->pin list database editor. Then pick the merlin gerin table. Then find the specific catalog number. With me it says on that line: MERLIN GERIN 18789 1,2 1,3,4
I would change it into this by pressing edit:
MERLIN GERIN 18789 1,2 1,3,4:3,11,14,12;3,21,24,22
If you press help in the edit window you can see how this all works.
Next time you assign this catalog number to a component it will work as you want.

With me the cross-reference was hidden. So try Components -> Cross-Reference -> Hide/Unhide Cross-Referencing. I don't know why it is hidden because in the block the attribute wasn't set invisible.
