Abstract

When a rotating electrical machine winding is inserted into a slot with a protective insulation intervening between them, a semiconductive insulating layer is lap-wound between an interlayer insulating layer of the rotating electrical machine winding and the protective insulation, the semiconductive insulating layer being formed by center-folding a continuous semiconductive sheet in the longitudinal direction. A thermal stress relaxation layer is provided inside the center-folded continuous semiconductive sheet so that thermal stress exerted in thickness direction of the insulating layers is absorbed.
