Sub core sections are arranged at the end portions and the center portion
of a stator core, and strand conductors are twisted and transposed by 360
degrees continuously toward the extending direction of winding slot. The
length corresponding to transposition pitch 180 degrees of the strand
conductors of the stator core is set as one core unit area, the sub core
sections including portions whose space factors are different are
arranged such that the sum of voltages in the strands induced in the
strand conductors in the odd-numbered core unit area from one end portion
of the stator core offsets the sum of voltages in the strands induced in
the strand conductors in the even-numbered core unit area from the end
portion of the core.
