[Amps] Zero Crossing circuit

I still have a few hundreds of low power ( Clare PS1201 ) and a few
RC4425-D12 ( 440v~ 25 Amps  4-32V DC )Projected to use the LP PS1201 )
as AC switches in my Yeasu G-2000RC  command box as I have to repair it
anyway. The big ones should be used on a Amp HV PS .......reading all
this comments, I just wonder if it’s a good idea......It just bothers me
that no one talked about snubber circuits!
Just a few hours back from Hospital and a surgery I can't concentrate,
but there is some stuff when I do a google on snubber.
Unfortunately I can only listen with one ear.... 
What say gentlement?

_________________________________________________________

Winding resistance is one factor.  There is also the capacitance of
the filter caps and the inductance of both primary and secondary of
the transformer.

A zero-crossing circuit which works well with one
transformer/capacitor combination might not be satisfactory with
another.
