ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A surface mounted grounding connector and method for installing same to the bared shield of a jacketed, shielded cable from which a portion of the jacket has been removed, without severing the shield and reestablish- ing the moisture protection of the shield. The connector is made up of a contact means placed atop the bared shield and engageable therewith to prevent relative movement of said contact means with respect to said shield. A copper braid is first engaged with said contact means and then wrapped about both said contact means and bared shield to establish a good electrical joint and held in place with a suitable clip. A preformed liquid-tight sealing form has a grounding conductor inserted through a suitable aperture therein and the bared conductor crimped in the crimpable connector attached to the contact means. The form is then moved into position such that its stem fits tightly about the ground conductor and crimpable connector and skirt overlies the contact means and bared shield. Finally an insulating tape or mastic is wrapped about the joint to complete a moisture-proof seal of the grounding conductor and shield.
