An electric machine includes a stator, a rotor, an electrically insulated
bearing unit for supporting the rotor, a transducer system, and at least
one torque support for connecting the transducer system to the rotor and
the stator. In order to prevent a potential equalization between the
stator and the rotor as a result of currents induced in the rotor, the
transducer system is electrically decoupled from the rotor and/or stator.
