Abstract

A dynamoelectric machine having a wire retaining device constructed to frictionally retain the quadrature winding to allow automated winding of the quadrature winding. The wire retaining device includes stator end caps having integrally formed wire retention elements at the radially inner end of the stator tooth. The wire retaining device frictionally holds the wire in place as the quadrature winding is automatically wound about the stator. In addition, the stator end caps electrically insulate the quadrature winding from the stator and the main winding.
