ROTATING ELECTRICAL MACHINE AND INSULATING TAPE
An insulating tape includes a base layer, two adhesive layers, and two reinforcing layers. The base layer has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The two adhesive layers contain nano-sized silica particles, and each overlap a corresponding one of the first surface and the second surface. The two reinforcing layers are each provided for a corresponding one of the first surface and the second surface, and are bonded to the base layer by the adhesive layers.
