[QUOTE="gnappi, post: 455497, member: 22374"] If you get one of those premade switch panels they "should" all have DPDT / DPST (+/- in and out with a common + and - bus wired to the switch bank) switches negating the need for a negative bus. If OTOH the switches on them are lit (7 pin) with LED's you will likely need a separate ground bus as the switches only switch the positive lead. This one on Ebay does really well for me as added output DC taps and ground bus, but IIRC the max current is 15A so you'll be OK with lower powered LED lights and such. 8 Way Terminal Block Bus Bar,Splits 1 Input to 8 Out [ATTACH type="full" alt="8way_terminal_block.jpg"]98600._xfImport[/ATTACH] For just a ground bus there are many options you can deploy.
