YOu said "The main breaker at the meter" This .. is very strange,
I would like to see a photo of the breaker. but instead I will tell you what I'd be looking for... A button on the breaker marked TEST.
If there is such a button,, What you have is a groung fault. You said you ran 50 feet of 10/3 Ok I assume on the end of that you put a TT-30 outlet, which is laying on the ground with your trailer plugged into it.
That is the problem, moisture is tripping the GFCI side of the breaker
