Abstract
A stator includes a core and a molded midsection arranged to define a plurality of slots. The stator also includes a plurality of conductors wound within the slots. Portions of the midsection immediately adjacent to the slots include magnetic insulator embedded therein. The magnetic insulator is electrically insulating and has ferrimagnetic ordering. The stator further includes a plurality of non-magnetic wedges disposed between the conductors and an inner diameter surface of the stator.
