I have done some projects that needed some generic dc-dc converters from aliexpress (eg stepping down 12v to 5 or 3.3) I alway treated the output of each step down as a pair of wires that share no ground. It sounds like that would be overk

So, there is a true value for 0? Does that mean when you have electronics and use multiple dc-dc converters all the inputs and outputs share the same ground, it's not just the values for that pair of wires? And if I want to use a telep
