Abstract

A housing provides protection against electromagnetic interference for an electrical connection device adapted to connect at least one first electrical cable provided with a protective screen against electromagnetic interference (EMI) to at least one second electrical cable. It consists of two half-shells made of an EMI-tight material adapted to contain, when assembled together, the connection device connecting the cables. The inside face of a first half-shell is provided with a system for simultaneously ensuring establishment of contact thereof with the screen of the first cable over one part of the outer contour of the screen. The inside face of the second half-shell is provided with members for simultaneously ensuring establishment of contact thereof with the screen of the first cable over the other part of the outer contour of the screen and establishment of pressure of the screen against the first half-shell at the position of establishment of contact thereof with the screen.
