Abstract
A stator comprises a core, a plurality of wire coils, an end turn phase insulator, and at least one lead wire. The wire coils are wound through the slots of the stator and form end turns as they wind from slot to slot. The end turn phase insulator comprises an end turn separating portion and a lead wire restraining tab. The end turn separating portion is sandwiched radially between an inner end turn and an outer end turn. The lead wire restraining tab extends from the end turn separating portion and is partially wrapped over the outer end turn in a manner sandwiching the lead wire between the lead wire restraining tab and the outer end turn. This prevents the lead wire from migrating into the core of the stator.
