ABSTRACT:
For a motor having a plastic bracket, a single-piece ground strap grounds both the motor's stator and rotor. The ground strap has one end fastened to a bearing retainer of the motor, an opposite end connected to a ground wire, and an intermediate section that is compressed between the stator and the housing. The end connected to the bearing retainer grounds the rotor, and the intermediate section grounds the stator. The ground strap is fastened to the motor using fasteners that already exist in an otherwise identical but ungrounded motor. In some cases, a combination bearing retainer and ground strap is blanked and formed as a unitary piece.
