Ground / drain wire?


Hello all,
Just a quick question. I have a pair of synergistic research alpha x2 interconnects. I got them from someone who cut the rca's off to use elsewhere. I noticed that there is a ground/drain wire within the cable. I am going to re terminate these cables. Question is, which end does the drain wire get soldered to the rca and which end gets left off?
Thanks
