Bob,
Thanks for your reply.
I'm slowly learning more as I go along.

provided by the manufacturer SHOWS a ground connection
at both ends, then there's a reason for it an
the designer's intentions should be observed.
However, the general rule of thumb is that shields
are to be GROUNDED at one end only . . . that doesn't
mean that the shield is not CONNECTED at both ends . . .
the shield may have an important role to play with
respect to signal or power return paths.
A very common double-grounding error in aircraft
audio systems occurs when headset and microphone
jacks are allowed to find local ground at the
point of attachment to the airframe. This is why
insulating washers . . .

are recommended where the jacks are to me mounted
to a conductive location on structure.
The schematic for wiring the product should be
quite explicit as to where the shields are connected. |
