Abstract
An electric motor includes a rotary shaft, a rotor fixed on the rotary shaft, and a stator having plural slots in which coils of different phases are wound. Each of the coils has at least one pair of end wires. At least in the coil located closest to the rotor, one of the end wires located farther from the rotor than the other of the end wires is used as a lead wire that is to be electrically connected to a driver circuit for energizing the coils.
