  • Dynamo-electric machine comprising a signaling system for recognizing short circuits in the winding system
    Patent number: 10454406
    Abstract: A dynamo-electric machine includes a laminated stator, a laminated rotor and a winding system disposed in the laminated stator and/or the laminated rotor and forming a winding overhang on end faces of the laminated stator and/or laminated rotor. The winding system includes a signaling line to detect interturn faults generated by a high heat. An insulation of signaling lines or a wire of the signaling lines is configured to be temperature-sensitive so that a melting point of the insulation or of the wire is about 30 degrees Kelvin above the temperature class of the dynamo-electric machine.
