A winding for a stator comprises (i) a plurality of first end turns provided on a first end of the stator core, (ii) straight portions extending through the slots, and (iii) a plurality of second turns provided on a second end of the stator core. The straight portions are arranged in layers in the slots in a number of layers. Each of the second end turns connects straight portions in two consecutive layers of two slots and is defined by a first common twist associated with one of the two consecutive layers and a second common twist associated with another of the two consecutive layers. The first common twist and the second common twist are identical for the second end turns in a first half of consecutive layers, and the first common twist and the second common twist are different for the second end turns in a second half of consecutive layers.

An electric machine includes a housing, a rotor rotatably mounted in the housing a stator fixedly mounted to the housing. The stator includes a stator core and a plurality of stator windings supported by the stator core. The stator core surrounds the rotor. A busbar including a plurality of electrically conductive members is coupled to the stator windings and an insulating cover extends across at least a portion of the electrically conductive members. A bracket is coupled to the busbar and one of the stator core and the housing, the bracket supporting the busbar in the housing.

A radially insertable thermistor assembly for installation into a stator having a plurality of stator windings. The radially insertable thermistor assembly includes a thermistor housing having one or more radially outwardly extending elements that extend through a void between two adjacent stator windings and being operable to connect to one of the stator and the plurality of stator windings, and a sensing element arranged at the thermistor housing.
