ABSTRACT:
A litz wire connector assembly and method is set forth. A length of litz wire includes a plurality of individually isolated wire strands. An end portion of the litz wire includes non-insulated end surfaces of the wire strands. A sleeve which has an opening smaller than an area of the litz wire is positioned around a first portion of the litz wire such that the first portion of the litz wire within the sleeve is compressed to an area smaller than the remaining portion of the litz wire. An end connection surface is formed by cutting the remaining portion of the litz wire to expose end surfaces of the first portion of litz wire; wherein the end surfaces of the litz wire are substantially even with the end surface of the sleeve. The end connection surface allows mounting in a compact area onto a conductive surface having a strong electrical and mechanical connection.
