Abstract
A lead is connected to a shield through a notch formed on a sheathing of the shield so that the connecting part between the shield and the lead is contained within the notch. A sheathing of the lead can be directly connected over the sheathing of the shield, and at the same time the end of the shield and the end of the lead can be prevented from directly contacting with the core leads. Thus, the connecting part is not bulky, and the cable can be thinner.
