Strat Grounding, Very Basic Question

Good day to all.

Please advise. I bought a Fender Pre-Wired SSS Pickguard to replace the HSS that came with my Contemporary Squire Strat.

The connections of the new Pre-Wired SSS Pickguard are:

1. 2 (there and back) to/from the Input Jack

2. Ground to the Tremolo

3. Ground with ring connector for the Control Cavity.

The connections as came with my HSS Squire Strat did not have a ground for the Control Cavity and sounds great without it.

The control cavity may have shielding paint (if so a multi-meter would read 0 V or 0.001 V, right)

Is it OK to forego the Control Cavity Ground and just Elec Tape it up?

Apologies for the verbosity and thanks in advance.
