Abstract
An electric machine a cylindrical stator core having an outer perimeter surface and an inner perimeter surface with a plurality of slots formed between the inner perimeter surface and the outer perimeter surface. The inner perimeter surface defines an inner cylindrical space for the stator that extends in an axial direction within the stator. The stator core is configured to retain a winding arrangement comprised of a plurality of conductor segments positioned in the plurality of slots of the stator core. The winding arrangement further includes a jumper extending into the inner cylindrical space and connecting two of the plurality of conductor segments. Accordingly, the jumper appears as a chord of a circular end shape of the stator core.
