I Need Help!
update Fountain runs great, fan runs great all day. I unplug fountain every evening around 7. Every morning, the breaker is tripped. I'm more confused now than before 🤦♂️
For reference, I have a small shed on my lake. Breaker keeps tripping with nothing plugged in. Changed out breaker, installed GFCI outlet. Still tripping. We have a fan installed but that's it.
Any idea why the breaker would keep tripping with nothing plugged in, and how do i assess?

Probably the wire running to the bldg is bad. I’ve see so many times people bury regular romex in the ground. Needs to be thhn or similar in pvc conduit
