[QUOTE="bbot1967, post: 494000, member: 27350"] Your not switching the ground, only the 12v and ground is going directly to the load, so no need to run a separate ground to the switch. Now if you have lighted switches and you want them to light, those need ground to light only but can share one ground as there's so very little load even if they were all turned on at once. I'm considering USB/volt meter to be a load, albeit a minimal one, and could also share with the switches assuming wire gage is ample. Help? [/QUOTE]
