Abstract:
1. A shield connector, comprising: plural terminal metal parts; an insulating connector housing, including a terminal holder therein for holding the plural terminal metal parts and an inner housing through which the holder is to be inserted in an insertion direction; and a conductive shield shell, to be attached to the inner housing; wherein the shield shell includes a pair of upper and lower shell members that are to be attached to each other so as to cover an outer periphery of the inner housing, wherein one of the upper and lower shell members of the pair of shell members includes an extension wall acting as a detection portion which detects a state where the holder is partially inserted into the inner housing by coming into contact with the holder so as to prevent the one shell member from being attached to the inner housing, wherein the holder has an axial center line which extends in the insertion direction and a rear end side in the insertion direction which extends towards the axial center line, and wherein the detection portion overlaps at least part of the rear end side of the holder when the one shell member is attached to the inner housing and the holder is completely inserted into the inner housing.
