Abstract:
A stator bar installation fixture and method for installing stator bars into specific stator core slots within a stator core of rotating electrical equipment. The stator bar installation fixture includes rotating mechanisms, rotatingly fixed at each end of the rotating electrical equipment, for supporting and controlling an angular positioning of a stator bar insertion mechanism relative to the stator core. The stator bar insertion mechanism supports a stator bar within the stator core, angularly locates a stator bar in alignment with the specific stator core slot, and inserts the stator bar into the specific stator core slot.
