An electric machine a stator having a stator core and windings positioned thereon. The stator core has a plurality of slots formed therein and a winding positioned in the plurality of slots. The winding includes at least four parallel paths distributed in slot sets of the stator core. Each slot set includes at least four contiguous slots including two left slots and two right slots. A first parallel path and a second parallel path are arranged in the two left slots for at least a first revolution of the winding around the core. The first parallel path and the second parallel path are arranged in the two right slots for at least a subsequent revolution of the winding around the core.

Electric machine with distributed winding having double cross end loops

An electric machine having a stator core with axially extending slots and a plurality of windings. Each stator winding defines a continuous electrical conductor having a first wire and a second wire connected in series. The first wire defines a plurality of first axially extending segments disposed in the slots and a plurality of first end turn segments. The second wire defines a plurality of second axially extending segments disposed in the slots and a plurality second end turn segments. The first wire is a solitary wire defining a first cross sectional area and the second wire comprises a plurality of individual strands wherein each strand defines a second cross sectional area less than the first cross sectional area. In slots containing both first and second axially extending segments, the second axially extending segments are disposed closer to the rotor than the first axially extending segments.
