Abstract

A power tool includes a brushless DC motor having a stator and a rotor pivotably arranged inside the stator, the stator including a first winding, a second winding, and a third winding. Each winding is arranged at at least two opposite poles connected together. The stator windings may be connected in a delta configuration by electrically coupling adjacent terminals of the first and second windings, second and third windings, and third and first windings at three connection points. A baffle may be provided in parallel and adjacent to the stator, the baffle including at least one conductive routing or stamping to facilitate electrically coupling the first, second, and third windings in at least one of a delta or a wye configuration.
