Steve, 

No, actually I ground out one side of the pole pig's HV 
bushings and connect the grounded HV bushing to the 
outer Romex sheathing. So, I end up with only two 
sheathed cables running from the control panel to the 
coil: one for the "Hot" HV lead and the other for the 
120 VAC cable running from the control panel to the 
RSG motor in the coil.
