I'm adding a 240V 20A outlet and two 120V 20A outlets. I know the 240V needs 2 hots and a ground and the 120's need a hot, neutral, and ground.
I have a 2 pole 20A breaker and two single pole 20A breakers available. The wiring will be in 3/4" conduit. Do I need to run separate ground conductors for each outlet or will one #10 green wire do for all the outlets?

This will be through about 40 feet of conduit.

Thanks for the help,
Jim

A single 12 AWG grounding conductor is all that is required.
