Abstract

A terminal fitting 20 accommodated in a shield connector is formed like a letter L by bending a flat plate portion 22, which extends from a press-attaching portion 21, at a right angle. Even when the flat plate portion 22 has a section, the area of which is equal to that of a section of a connector 11 of a shield wire 10, the flat plate portion 22 can be bent in a direction of width thereof with an allowable bending radius that is small as compared with that of the shield wire 10. Thus, the size of a bent portion is reduced. Consequently, the size of the entire shield connector is decreased.
