Original Abstract Submitted
A connector is provided with a connector housing including a wire pull-out opening, a terminal accommodated in the connector housing, a wire connected to the terminal and to be pulled out to outside of the connector housing through the wire pull-out opening, a wire holding portion made of synthetic resin and configured to hold a projecting part of the wire by being externally fit to the projecting part adjacent to the wire pull-out opening and projecting outward through the wire pull-out opening, a shield shell made of metal and configured to cover the connector housing by being fixed to the connector housing, and a wire pressing portion made of metal and to be bolt-fastened to the shield shell while sandwiching the wire holding portion between the shield shell and the wire pressing portion in a first direction intersecting an axial direction of the wire.
