A stator includes an annular stator core and a stator coil. The stator coil is formed of a plurality of electric wires mounted on the stator core. The stator coil has a coil end part that protrudes from an axial end face of the stator core so as to be located outside slots of the stator core. The electric wires forming the stator coil are grouped into a plurality of electric wire sets. Each of the electric wire sets consists of a predetermined number of the electric wires which are electrically connected to one another. The stator coil further includes a plurality of bridging wires. Each of the bridging wires extends, on an axially outer periphery of the coil end part of the stator coil, to electrically connect a corresponding pair of the electric wire sets. Further, at least two of the bridging wires are fixed to one another.
