Armature conductors are mounted to the ferromagnetic stator core of an AC machine by a plurality of flexible supports. Each support comprises a plurality of teeth interleaved with spacers having a discontinuity which creates a spring section on each tooth. The structure of the support provides a flexible mounting which will accommodate differential thermal expansion between the armature conductors and the stator core during operation while providing rigid attachment between the conductors and the stator core in the radial and azimuthal directions.
