Abstract
A stator assembly includes a stator core and at least one conductive bundle. The stator core has a first end, a second end, and a plurality of slots extending from the first end to the second end. The conductive bundle includes a plurality of individually insulated conductive wires. At least one portion of the at least one conductive bundle extends from the first end to the second end of one slot of the plurality of slots. The at least one portion is twisted by a predetermined amount within the one slot to minimize a circulatory current along the plurality of individual insulated conductive wires in the at least one portion.
