A shielded electric cable is described in which drain wires are incorporated into a shielding tape consisting of a metallic foil bonded to a non-conductive base strip. In one form, the drain wires are held in contact with the foil surface by fixing them between the foil and the base strip. The shielding tape is helically or longitudinally wound around the insulated conductors to provide a continuous conductive shielding surface. At the terminal point, the exposure of one or more drain wires provides a convenient connection from the foil to a grounding terminal.
