Abstract: The stator for an electric machine includes a ring-shaped stator yoke, on which stator coils, formed on winding bodies and distributed uniformly around the circumference, are mounted. The coils are wired electrically together by a wiring arrangement, which has a ring-shaped carrier element designed to be attached to the stator to hold connecting conductors. The carrier element is mounted radially with respect to the winding elements. To ensure a simple and reliable mounting of the carrier element on the stator, it is proposed that the carrier element be held in place on the winding bodies by means of a latching connection so that it cannot move in the axial direction.
