Why to disconnect the negative/ground terminal, not positive?

In many cases, it doesn''t matter whether the positive or negative power connection is broken. Good examples are driving a solenoid, relay, or LED. When a circuit is more complex and has connections back to the driving circuit, then it''s often worth the extra complexity of switching the power and keeping the ground always connected.

eli5: ground vs negative terminal. are they the same thing?

Not necessarily but, by convention, generally yes. Ground is nothing more than a baseline reference for all the voltages on a circuit. You start with whatever voltage your power source provides and call negative to the 0V pole and positive to +24V (or whatever) pole. Ground is always 0V so ground, negative and 0V all mean the same.

What are the tradeoffs for positive vs. negative ground?

Ford was positive ground, Chevy was negative (mostly). When the ASAE (in the 50''s I think) met to establish conventions, the big guy won. However, when you consider the electro-motive series of metals, negative ground is incorrect. Japanese and British manufacturers stick with positive ground in cars they manufacture for domestic sales.

Direct current

To save weight and wire, often the metal frame of the vehicle is connected to one pole of the battery and used as the return conductor in a circuit. Often the negative pole is the chassis "ground" connection, but positive ground may be used in some wheeled or marine vehicles. In a battery electric vehicle, there are usually two separate DC systems.

Outback: positive or negative grounding ...

No car has had a positive ground since the mid 1950''s "Packard, Nash, Hudson, Pierce, and Studebaker were positive-ground until the mid-fifties. Positive ground in automobiles was mostly abandoned with the introduction of 12-volt electrical systems in the fifties. 1955 was pretty much the last use of 6-volt electrics in American-made cars."

Common ground and why you need one

Ground can also be known as 0(zero)V. Ground is often, but does not have to be, the negative pole of the supply. Ground could be the positive pole of the supply or the mid point of a split supply. Ground is not a point on a particular component, for example the negative (or positive) pole of a battery is not ground. Credits
