I do general maintenance at a summer camp that includes a campground. One of our campsite electric posts is having a problem. The GFCI is tripped and will not reset. I tried a new GFCI outlet and same result. I'm also getting about 2.6v from neutral to ground, when measured at the outlet and at the breaker box with no load on the circuit. There is also nothing connected to the LOAD side of the GFCI. I get about 118v Hot to Ground and from Hot to Neutral.

Nothing has changed on the circuit that I know of. Any ideas on how to fix this? Let me know if I need to provide more information.
