Stator for an electric machine , comprising a first end face , an opposite second end face and a multiplicity of pins , which are arranged in concentric circles with different distances from a stator centre point (M) in slots (51-58, 71-78, 91-98) in the stator , and each concentric circle forms a layer (L1, L2, L3, L4), wherein - the stator has a multiplicity of turns , which extend over the entire circumference of the stator and thereby form a partial-coil, - in each case four pins in different layers (L1, L2, L3, L4) are connected to one another in series and form a first of the turns , - a first pin of the first turn is located in a first slot in the first layer (L1), - a second pin of the first turn is located in a second slot in the second layer (L2) and is connected to the first pin on the second end face by means of a first type of connection , wherein the second slot is at a first radial distance from the first slot in a first circumferential direction of the stator , - a third pin of the first turn is located in the first slot in the fourth layer (L4) and is connected to the second pin on the first end face by means of a second type of connection , - a fourth pin of the first turn is located in the second slot in the third layer (L3) and is connected to the third pin on the second end face by means of a third type of connection , - the fourth pin in the second slot is connected to a fifth pin in the first layer (L1) in a third slot by means of a fourth type of connection and there is a second distance between the second slot and the third slot , the second distance being greater than the first distance , - the series connection of the subsequent pins in the stator begins again with the fifth pin , and - the first, the second and the third type of connection differ from one another. - the stator has a multiplicity of turns , which extend over the entire circumference of the stator and thereby form a partial-coil, - in each case four pins in different layers (L1, L2, L3, L4) are connected to one another in series and form a first of the turns , - a first pin of the first turn is located in a first slot in the first layer (L1), - a second pin of the first turn is located in a second slot in the second layer (L2) and is connected to the first pin on the second end face by means of a first type of connection , wherein the second slot is at a first radial distance from the first slot in a first circumferential direction of the stator , - a third pin of the first turn is located in the first slot in the fourth layer (L4) and is connected to the second pin on the first end face by means of a second type of connection , - a fourth pin of the first turn is located in the second slot in the third layer (L3) and is connected to the third pin on the second end face by means of a third type of connection , - the fourth pin in the second slot is connected to a fifth pin in the first layer (L1) in a third slot by means of a fourth type of connection and there is a second distance between the second slot and the third slot , the second distance being greater than the first distance , - the series connection of the subsequent pins in the stator begins again with the fifth pin , and - the first, the second and the third type of connection differ from one another. <EOS>
