Hello All, I'm in the process of rewiring and am separating the 12 volt house panel from the starting battery to it's own battery system. I'm going to use the old panel which has breakers for each circuit next to the switches. The panel itself has no ground connections, just the breakers and hot wires that jump from them over to the switches. So my question, which may be a stupid one I don't know, from the batteries run the hot to the panel and the negative post to a negative bus terminal for the grounds from each circuit, cabin lights, horn, etc.. Is the negative ground from the battery post sufficient as the ground for this? Thanks
