   Try CPC (cpc.farnell.com), but you will probably need some sort of   
   'driver' between the Pi digital output and the relay coil.   
   Alternatively, as suggested here, a solid state switch or even an opto   
   isolator.

   Again CPC will probably have something, but again you'll need   
   something between the Pi and the 'whatever'.   
      
   Are there not ready made relay modules for the Pi?
