I've always been taught to switch the hot side of a circuit.

Mostly as a safety issue....
I'm tryig to wire a switch to my fuel pump. so is the ground wire the way to go ?
oh also i wanted to use a relay with the switch but i don't understand them at all. for some reason i can't grasp the concept .. if anyone cares to explain them in detail and what prong does what, and how i would go about wiring one up with a switch, id gladly read it
but i wanted to wire the switch up to tue ground if at all possible.

In this case I dont see the difference. I will say that there are multiple ways to make a safe circuit, and hot side is fine in a lot of cases. . . But in this case, where the pump is fused from the factory, I think its safer for him to be fvcking around with the ground wire than the power wire. Its a safety issue. . .
so can i tap into the ground wire without the need of a relay ?
Yes. It will be fine.
Sweet thanks bro ! would amperage matter on a ground wire or can i use any switch ? i found a 20v 10a switch that i like O_O
There shouldnt be any amperage at the ground. Any 12v switch will do fine.
