To produce a slack condition in a lead wire (24, 26) that extends from a stator coil (20, 22) to a terminal receptacle (40, 42) mounted on the stator core (12), the lead wire is bent over a wire guide finger (124) adjacent the terminal receptable (40 42). This increases the length of the lead wire segment between the coil and the terminal receptacle (40, 42) so that the lead wire (24, 26) will be somewhat slack. This also materially decreases the tension on the lead wire where it enters the receptacle, and avoids the abrupt, wire-weakening, right-angled bend resulting from the present practice. A method and an apparatus are provided for appropriately positioning the wire guide finger. |
