Abstract

A terminal assembly for rotating electrical machines, such as high speed starter-generators used for gas turbine engines in aircraft or other vehicles, is made from components that are readily assembled for ease of installation, maintenance, and repair. The terminal assembly includes a feedthrough body, an electrically conductive electrode that extends through the feedthrough body, and a hermetical seal that couples the electrode to the feedthrough body inner surface.
