Abstract
A method and apparatus for reducing winding failures in electric machines resulting from the application of high frequency or high dV/dt voltage pulses or voltage signals to the phase windings of the machine in which an inductive element is provided between the source of the high-frequency or high dV/dt pulses and the phase winding to absorb a portion of the voltage stresses on the phase windings that result from the application of the high-frequency or high dV/dt pulses to the machine.
