Abstract
In an a.c. generator for vehicles, an output terminal connected to a rectifier circuit unit has a seat surface on which an electric cable for connection with a storage battery is seated. The seat surface is positioned outside a rear cover and an insulating member in the longitudinal direction of the output terminal. The electric cable is tightened to the seat surface by a nut engaged with the output terminal, while holding the electric cable from contacting the insulating member. Thus, the insulating member is restricted from being deformed and the nut is restricted from loosening even when the insulating member contracts.
