I'm presently having problems with electrical in floor heat GFCI tripping in various circuits. This is a new installation. I can't measure any grounds on any of these circuits. I checked the main panel and I can't find a bonding strap or conductor between the neutral and the grounding bar in the main panel. I'm not sure how to rectify this grounding issue in the panel. I need to eliminate the grounding issue in the panel.

Are you saying you are measuring between hot and ground and get no reading?
If you have a separate ground and neutral, you may not need a bond.

The supplier is asking me to verify the grounding in the panel. I only did a visual looking for a connection fron neutral to ground. I just measured and I am getting 120v to ground which I suppose implies there is a connection somewhere in the panel..
Thanks.

However not sure why these GFCI thermostats would trip out frequently. Can't measure any grounds.
