Abstract
An AC generator for a vehicle including a rotor with a fan, a stator disposed around the outer periphery of the rotor, and a frame. The stator includes a laminated core having a plurality of slots, a plurality of electric conductors in the slots, and an insulator. There is a gap between the electric conductors and the insulator in a diametrical section of the slots, and an area ratio of the gap with respect to the sectional area of the slots is not more than 25%. A portion of the electric conductor positioned within the slot has a substantially rectangular shape along the shape of the slot.
