ABSTRACT:
In an oil cooled alternator (10) having a plurality of commonly connected, relatively inflexible stator coils (14) with distal ends (16) for providing electrical output power from the alternator (10), the improvement being a terminal assembly (18) for making electrical connection with each of said distal ends (16) which flexible conductor (20) with a pair of ends (22) on opposite sides of an elongate body having a flexibility substantially greater than that of coils (14) and a connector (24) with a first relatively rigid portion adapted for attachment to distal end (16) of coil (14) and second portion (28) adapted for fixed electrical connection with one of pair of ends (22) of flexible conductor (20) and relatively rigid post assembly (30) having elongate body portion (32) extending between two ends (34) and having assembly 36 carried at one of said two ends (34) for electrical connection with the other of the pair of ends (22) of flexible conductor (20). The invention includes a method of installing a terminal post (30) to stator coil (14) of an oil cooled alternator which includes preassembling a flexible cable (20) assembly having an elongate body of substantially greater flexibility than that of stator coil (14) by fixedly attaching a pair of connectors (24) to opposite ends of the elongate body (20), respectively and welding one of the pair of connectors (24) to one end (34) of an elongate terminal connector post (32) and welding another one of the pair of connectors (24) to a free end (16) of stator coil (14). A kit assembly (48) is also provided.
