Default Voltage reducer

Have the mad jax 30 amp Dcfd power converter on my 36 volt txt. How do I hook all my accesories to it. Lights and radio. Where should the ground go to from my accesories? Am I right in thinking that there is only one hot wire coming off of the reducer?? Thanks

The frame/body/chassis of an electric golf cart should not be grounded. (Electrical safety issues)

All components and accessories should use a two wire system. B+ on one wire and B- on the other.

Many car accessories are designed for a chassis ground, but marine accessories tend to be two wire.

---------
If the voltage reducer only has a +12V output wire, connect the "ground" wires from the accessories to the battery pack negative input to the reducer.

I bought a marine grade fuse block. It has fused positive terminals, and negative terminals, plus it's more corrosion resistant than a standard fuse block.
