Dana...
Do you have multiple FM 100s? If so only one should have the GFI fuse.
Broken panel with water getting into glass?
Turn it off and wait 5 min and turn it on.  Usually clears it especially if 
it's a faulty nuisance trip.
Have had numerous FM 100s give faulty afci errors.  Removing the.afci boards 
always resolved this issue.  But of course check all you connections leading to 
and from the cc.
Keep a few extra 1A gfi fuses handy....you may need a couple to test it all out.
Keep us posted.
Good luck

Hey, all you wise ones,
37 years in the business and I’ve never had a ground fault ever in any 
installation I’ve done or my home systems. I went out to my system here an hour 
ago and one FM 100 is completely turned off claiming ground fault on the mate 
3S.
I guess my first question is :

Is this really a ground fault ?

I had removed the ground fault breaker when I upgraded due to space 
considerations

In my entire time in this business, I’ve never had to deal with the ground 
fault any suggestions on how I should be tracing this?

Has anybody seen this in an FM 100 when it wasn’t a ground fault?

I do own a megger&  I’ve never had to use it. I only bought it about three 
months ago cause it seemed like a good idea and I might need to use one 
someday, Maybe I’m psychic ?
now if I could just figure out how to trace this out.
All suggestions welcome thanks all!
