For electrical appliances such, I would use "shielding", as per Engström or Gullberg.

connection: "The shielding may only be connected on one side".

screening

It is a screening:

spärrtillstånd (cutoff, cutoff condition, cut-off condition), meanderfåra, korvsjö (oxbow), bländskydd (lens hood), avskärmning (screening), avbrott i överföring (cutting the transmission).

Peer comment(s):
neutral Roald Toskedal : I'd say that 'screening' would pertain to say a whole room, whereas the cable in question here has a 'shield'
