Abstract
An electric machine includes a stator disposed about an axis in register with the rotor. The stator has a plurality of slots parallel to the axis. A plurality of windings with generally rectangular cross sections is provided with each winding having a first portion disposed radially inward of a second portion relative to the axis. At least two of the plurality of windings are at least partially inserted into each of the plurality of slots. The plurality of generally rectangular windings in each of the plurality of slots is configured to reduce resistive loss within the stator.
