Abstract
Wedge-shaped insulating blocks are located between conductors at the end of the stator winding coils. The blocks tangentially separate adjacent conductors at a plurality of positions around the periphery of the stator winding structure. A band is positioned around several of the conductors and blocks to force the structure together. Cross-bands are positioned around the blocks and the band which surrounds the group of conductors to tighten the surrounding band. Wedges may be positioned between all of the banded groups to secure the entire stator winding assembly.
