Claims6
A multibranched electrical conductor bundle coated with a metal electromagnetic shielding sheath formed by sheath elements braided directly on branches of said bundle using metal braiding strands,
- wherein at least one end of said sheath elements is held captive between (i) an inner ring and (ii) an outer ring concentric with the said inner ring, said inner ring and said outer ring each being made of electrically conductive material, and
- wherein an inner periphery of said end of the sheath elements is disposed against an outer periphery of the inner ring, and an outer periphery of said end of the sheath elements is disposed against an inner periphery of the outer ring, whereby
- the metal braiding strands are prevented from standing up.
