if i attached 4 conductors to neg side of dc source to loads and 4 conductors to positive side of dc source to loads will each conductor have same voltage and milliamps coming from source to loads

In theory, Yes.

In reality there are some factors that may affect the current flow.

1) Different conductor sizes will have different resistances
2) Different conductor lengths will have different resistances
3) Variations in the electrical connections on the ends can affect the overall resistance of an individual conductor.

Assuming you've been reasonably careful with items 1 thru 3, the loads should balance rather equally.

This assumes that all four conductors serve the same piece of equipment. If they are going to four different "loads", then all bets are off.

As long as you attach each conductor to all of the loads, you will have the same voltage in each conductor. They will effectively act like one large conductor. If you divide the conductors between different loads, then you must balance the loads to achieve the same voltage.

so four conductors connected to positive side
and four conductors connected to negative side
it is parallel
in parallel the voltage is same but the current may not be same depending to loads

Theoretically if all the conductors are of equal size and length they will share the load evenly.
