The rotating electrical machine comprises an enclosure with multiple cooling fins, insulated stator windings positioned inside the enclosure, and a heating element positioned inside the enclosure. The heating element provides suitable heating of the insulated stator windings through heated air to prevent condensation while being physically decoupled from an insulation of the insulated stator windings.
