Abstract: A shielded connector (A) is used with a conductive path (B) that has wires (10) extending beyond an end of a conductive shield (11). The shielded connector (A) has a housing (20) for accommodating terminal fittings (40) connected with ends of the wires (10). The wires (10) are surrounded by a conductive shield (11). A conductive tube (50) connects an end of the shield (11) and the shielding shell (30) and surrounds the wires (10). An insulating wire cover (80) is disposed between the conductive tube (50) and the wires (10). The insulating coating of the wires (10) could be peeled off to expose a conductor inside. However, the wire cover (80) prevents electrical contact of such a conductor and the conductive tube (50).

Abstract: In a pair of tongue pieces 23, 24 which are opposed to each other and extended from the end portions in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical body 20a in which the electric wire harness 11 is accommodated, the rising portions 23a, 24a are provided in the directions opposing to each other. Therefore, the rising portions 23a, 24a are located on the sides of the electric wire harness 11. Accordingly, when the tongue pieces 23, 24 are attached to the electric wire harness 11, the sides of the electric wire harness 11 can be protected by the rising portions 23a, 24a. Therefore, when the adhesive tape 12 is wound in such a manner that the tongue pieces 23, 24 are pressed to each other, the sides of the electric wire harness 11 can be easily protected and fixed.
