ABSTRACT:
When operating a shield connector, if a metal terminal is inserted into a proper position, the metal terminal is prevented by a first withdrawal prevention device from withdrawal. When a housing and a shield cover are connected together, the metal terminal is further prevented by a second withdrawal prevention device from withdrawal. If the metal terminal is not inserted into the proper position, a resilient retaining pawl of the second withdrawal prevention device engages an engagement portion of the metal terminal to be prevented from resilient deformation when the housing and the shield cover are to be connected together. As a result, the shield cover engages an engagement projection of the resilient retaining pawl, so that the housing and the shield cover cannot be connected together.
