Abstract
In a rotary electric machine having a winding and a rectifier arrangement which rotate in unison, the rectifier comprises a plurality of diodes each having a terminal lug extending parallel to the rotor axis, and electrical connections between the winding and rectifier arrangement are provided by connectors which extend between the respective terminal lugs and locations on the winding which are generally diametrally opposite the lugs, whereby the combination of the centrifugal forces on each lug and connector prevents distortion of the lugs.
