Abstract
A shield terminal engageable with a shield of an electrical cable includes a first member having a first contact surface inclined at an acute angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the terminal and a second member having a second contact surface inclined at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the terminal. When the shield terminal is attached to the shield the first and second contact surfaces engage the shield. The second contact surface of the second member is disposed adjacent the first contact surface of the first member. A distance between the second contact surface and the first contact surface is less than a thickness of the shield.
