Hi Tim,

the LV connects or lugs coming out of the can; so you are saying you hook one of 
the HV ears to RF Ground??? do you also hook one side of the gap to RF ground??

Yes

Yes

Yes

One side of the cap is connected to the outer primary turn and connected to RF 
ground on the inside turn. HV side of pig runs to the other side of the cap = 
the potential difference your looking for (or a charged cap).

Here, sometimes a schematic is helpful:

Take care,
