I have a receptacle on the back deck of my house which doesn't work. It used to work fine but now it doesn't. There is only one cable coming to it. The wires appear to be 12 AWG, but the black/white wires are stranded whereas the ground wire is solid. In the circuit breaker panel there is a 20 amp GFCI breaker which won't stay reset. Every time I try to reset it the breaker trips immediately. I have replaced the receptacle, completely removed the wires cut off the ends, yet the circuit breaker keeps tripping. I put an ohmmeter on the receptacle side of the wire and read around 25 ohms.
What do you suggest I do next?
