Abstract: The disclosure relates to array of conductors for a winding for an electrical machine wherein a first group of conductors extend on a first surface parallel to a reference surface, comprising N_s subgroups each having N_c first conductors, and a second group of second conductors extend on a second surface parallel to said reference surface, comprising also N_s subgroups each having N_c second conductors. First conductors of the first group overlap second conductors of the second group at interconnection zones, comprising upper interconnection zones and lower interconnection zones opposite to the upper interconnection zones with respect to the curve, where first conductors may be connected to second conductors for forming coils. The disclosure also relates to a winding comprising such an array and to an electrical machine comprising such a winding.
