The invention relates to a conductor assembly (1), in particular for use in electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles, comprising at least one planar first current-conducting component (10) having a first outer face (12) and a first inner face (13) facing away from the first outer face (12), and comprising at least one planar second current-conducting component (20) having a second outer face (22) and a second inner face (23) facing away from the second outer face (22), wherein the second current-conducting component (20) is arranged in such a way that the second inner face (23) of the second current-conducting component (20) is opposite the first inner face (13) of the first current-conducting component (10). According to the invention, a first coating (18) is applied to the first inner face (13) of the current-conducting component (10), wherein the material of the first coating (18) has a lower electrical conductivity than the material of the first current-conducting component (10) and/or that a second coating (28) is applied to the second inner face (23) of the second current-conducting component (20), wherein the material of the second coating (28) has a lower electrical conductivity than the material of the second current-conducting component (20).

A flexible electrical conductor including an assembly comprising a flexible conductive core made of a first metal material and a sheath covering the conductive core and made of a second metal material having an electrical resistivity higher than the electrical resistivity of the first metal material; a first connection strip formed at least in part by the second metal material and connected to a first end of the assembly, wherein, at the first end of the assembly, the sheath and the first connection strip are bonded by TIG welding, and the conductive core and the first connection strip are bonded by fillet-brazing or soldering.

A conductive member includes a strip-shaped flat conductor having a bent portion bent in a width direction, a plurality of resin tubes installed to cover a periphery of the flat conductor excluding the bent portion, in which the plurality of resin tubes include a first resin tube configured to cover a first portion of the flat conductor and second resin tube configured to cover a second portion of the flat conductor located adjacent to the first portion, with the bent portion disposed in between, and an adhesive tape wound to block a gap between the first resin tubes and the second resin tube where the bent portion is exposed

A composite wire bundle for a stator winding, a stator including a composite wire bundle, and a method of forming a composite wire bundle. The composite wire bundle includes a plurality of copper wires, wherein each of the plurality of copper wires include a first surface. The composite wire bundle also includes a copper-graphene multilayer composite applied to the first surface of each of the plurality of copper wires, wherein the copper-graphene multilayer composite includes a second surface. Further, the composite wire bundle includes a fluoropolymer matrix formed around the second surfaces and a jacket encapsulating the fluoropolymer matrix.

A copper strip for edgewise bending can be edgewise-bent under a condition that a ratio R/W of a bending radius R to a width W is 5.0 or less. In the copper strip, a thickness t is in a range of 1 mm or more and 10 mm or less, and area ratio B/(A+B) is in a range of more than 10% and 100% or less in a square region where the length of one side is 1/10 of the thickness t, where an intersection of a straight line which contacts a surface and is parallel to a width direction and a straight line which contacts an end face and is perpendicular to the width direction is used as a reference in a cross section orthogonal to a longitudinal direction, A is an area where copper is present, and B is an area where copper is not present.
