ABSTRACT:
A shielded terminal (20) is inserted into a cavity (31) of a female housing (30) while inserting stabilizers (28) bulging out to left and right sides therefrom along guide grooves (40), and is partly locked by a locking portion (35). A retainer (50) is inserted into a retainer mount hole (42) while inserting legs (52) at the opposite sides into insertion grooves (44). When the retainer (50) is pushed to a full locking position, retaining portions (54) are engaged with the rear edges of the stabilizers (28) to doubly lock the shielded terminal (20). The retainer (50) is locked at the full locking position by the resilient engagement of full locking claws (58) with full locking sections (48) as well as by the fitting engagement of elongated locking projections (60) formed on the inner surfaces of the leg pieces (52) with end portions of the guide grooves (40).
