Abstract

A high voltage generator armature bar (10) that exhibits improved performance by forming one or more of its conductive components from a conductive material that uses a tin oxide-based composition as a conductive filler. The armature bar (10) is of the type having one or more tiers of conductor strands (12), strand insulation (14), conductive internal grading (20), groundwall insulation (22), conductive slot armoring (24), and preferably a transposition filler (18). The conductive internal grading (20), the conductive slot armoring (24) and/or the transposition filler (18) contain a conductive filler of antimony-doped tin oxide that may constitute the entire conductive filler, or can be present as a shell on the filler particles.
