Claim Text:
1. A connection method between a braided shield layer of a shield wire and a drain wire for electrically connecting the drain wire composed of a plurality of conductive element wires with the braided shield layer provided as a most outer layer formed by braiding a plurality of conductive wire bundles each composed of a plurality of conductive element wires thinner than the conductive element wires of the drain wire, said connection method sequentially comprising the steps of: a shield terminal insertion step for inserting a ring-shaped shield terminal over a vicinity of an end of the shield wire, the shield terminal having an enlarged radius portion via a step portion; a shield layer folding and overlapping step for folding an end side nearer than the shield terminal of the braided shield layer of the shield wire and overlapping with an outer side wall of the shield terminal so that an end side of the braided shield layer is positioned on the step portion; a drain wire overlapping step for overlapping the drain wire with a part of the outer side wall of the shield terminal where the braided shield layer is overlapped; a shield ring inserting step for inserting a shield ring over the outer side wall where the braided shield layer is overlapped and a portion where the drain wire is overlapped until the step portion of the shield terminal is reached; and a crimping step for pressing a portion of the shield ring corresponding to the portion where the drain wire is overlapped toward an axial direction of the shield ring from an outer periphery of the shield ring, and deforming the pressed portion into a concave shape.
