Summary: | An apparatus useful in clamping stator coil windings of a turbine generator includes a retaining platform for extending across a pair of the coil windings positioned in a spaced relation. The retaining platform includes a bore extending therethrough. A connecting insert member is slidably carried within the bore and has a through-hole with separable mating segments for admitting a rod into the through-hole. An elongated rod passes through the through-hole of the connecting insert member, which rod includes a bulbous shaped end dimensioned for passing through the bore of the retaining platform but cannot pass through the through-hole of the connecting insert member. Thus providing tension in the elongated rod biases the platform against the pair of coil windings. |
