An isolation transformer includes a transformer core. First and second through-bores extend through the transformer core from a first surface to a second surface. Each through-bore has an elongated profile with at least a portion of the elongated profile providing a respective flat winding surface. The flat winding surfaces are spaced apart by a central portion of the transformer core. The transformer is wound with a six-wire cable having a central non-conductive core. First, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth conductive wires are positioned around and adjacent to the central non-conductive core in a substantially equally spaced angular relationship. The second conductive wire is positioned between the first conductive wire and the third conductive wire; and the fifth conductive wire is positioned between the fourth conductive wire and the sixth conductive wire. The conductive wires are twisted about the central non-conductive core at a selected twist density.

The present invention was contrived through attention being focused on the following in a prior-art distributed-winding coil: a solenoid configuration in which winding wires are to be wound is preserved when initially formed, but this configuration tends to be loosened during subsequent steps, and the initial winding sequence of the winding wires, or the position of the winding wires relative to each other, tends to be disrupted, and accordingly must be prevented, when a certain force is applied and the necessary bending or deformation is induced in coils with distributed winding in which the solenoid configuration is preserved, or when the coils are ultimately inserted into slots. Therefore, as a solution, the present invention provides a holding tool 30 provided with: at least two substrates 32 linked at one end so as to be able to open and close; an outlet 31 formed at the other end of the substrates 32; and a holding space 32a capable of opening on the outlet 31 side, and holding the first accommodation portion 11a or the second accommodation portion 11b of a coil 10 while maintaining the alignment state of the winding wires 10A that constitute part of the first accommodation portion 11a and the second accommodation portion 11b when the substrates 32 are closed; the holding tool 30 being capable of forming a twist portion at a first coil end and a second coil end and reducing the size of the coil ends of the coils while maintaining the alignability of the winding wires that constitute part of the first and second accommodation portions of the coil 10.
