Shielded electric wire connection structure

A shielded electric wire connecting structure, comprising:

• a lower case that has a lower terminal base and houses a rotary electric machine;
• an upper case that has an upper terminal base and houses an inverter, the upper case being disposed directly above the lower case so as to be opposed to the lower case;
• a plurality of electric wires whose one ends are connected to the lower terminal base directly below the upper case while the other ends are connected to the upper terminal base at an end portion on a surface side of a wall of the upper case, the plurality of electric wires being placed in a state of being bent from a position directly below the upper case to a position opposed to the wall, and
• a braided shield component that is placed to shield the plurality of electric wires only on an opposite side of the plurality of electric wires from a face thereof opposed to the upper case;
• wherein
• the braided shield component comprises a plurality of warp sections, which have electrical conductivity and extend along the plurality of electric wires so as to be connected to a first fastening member, formed of an electrically conductive material and fixed to the upper case, and a second fastening member, formed of an electrically conductive material and fixed to the lower case, and a weft member, which is formed of a resin material and woven across the plurality of warp sections while intersecting each other, and
• the weft member has a tensile strength per unit cross sectional area higher than that of a weft member formed of copper.
