Just to add to what Trevor said, you really only need to have one GND wire from the breakout box going to your switches so in your example you would need 4 wires. On your breakout box, each set of 9 connectors on the sides all have a GND..... they're all the same...... so don't think that just because you're connecting switches to that one side that you have to use that particular GND.... any of them will do.
Regards,
Henry

Interesting. Hadn't heard that. Do you know the reason? I spent the bulk of my career designing digital electronics and dipped my toes in the analog world only a little. Our primary reason for choosing stranded versus solid wire was the difference in material fatique life.

Thanks again folks - I'm there .....
Awaiting momentary switches but I am ready to roll once they arrive.
Thanks for the tip Henry about the ground connections all being the same on the b/o board.
All the bestDavid R

I was taught that in the Air Force but I forget why the difference. Been too long ago, but for some reason that has always stuck in my head.
