Electric connection for a rotor winding of an electrical generator

An electric generator comprising a rotor having a rotor winding, a rotor shaft, a slip ring, and an electrical connector,

• the electrical connector being attached to the rotor shaft and providing an electrical connection between the rotor winding and the slip ring, the electrical connector having a first support cartridge,
• the first support cartridge being electrically isolated,
• at least a second support cartridge distanced from the first support cartridge along a longitudinal axis of the electrical connector, the second support cartridge being electrically isolated,
• at least one conductive bar extending along the longitudinal axis, the at least one conductive bar being fixed to the first support cartridge and the second support cartridge, and a winding connector for electrically connecting the at least one conductive bar to the rotor winding of the rotor,
• wherein the rotor shaft comprises an axial cavity for housing the electrical connector,
• wherein the electrical connector comprises a hollow housing, and wherein the electrical connector comprises an insulating filler provided between the hollow housing and the at least one conductive bar.
