Zusammenfassung:A rotating rectifier associated with an electric machine is provided. In one example aspect, a rotating rectifier includes a diode. The diode can be one diode of a stage of diodes. The rotating rectifier can also include a connection lead, such an exciter connection lead. The connection lead has a diode contact segment in contact with the diode and a first spring segment and a second spring segment positioned on opposite sides of the diode contact segment. The first spring segment and the second spring segment can be positioned adjacent to the diode contact segment. The first spring segment and the second spring segment each have one or more spring laps. The spring laps can be non-planar spring laps, such as undulating spring laps.
