0.6 volt would not bother me...
Code says there is one ground but in many campgrounds there are multiple grounds. One at the pedestal itself and one at the meter.
If you drive two ground rods. say 100 yards apart.. It is not at all uncommon to find a difference in potential between them.
And for the hams among us.. Story of a YL in Arizonia.. She had a modest station 100 watts or so, and was making contacts all over when the OMs in the area who had Full Gallons could barely make it across town.. Finally hats in hand they ask her how she was doing it....
Well, I read how a good ground was important and how the ground rod(s) Should be driven in permanently moist soil for the best ground.. So I planted them in my flower garden and water them every day.

Thanks everyone, for the replies! I did not feel that 0.6 between neutral and ground was enough to be a problem. I did plug in, and use the outlet. What concerned me, was that a small amount, could maybe turn into more.
At what amount of current between neutral and ground, would be considered unsafe to plug into?
