A stator for an electrical machine includes a ring-shaped stator yoke with a number of stator coils arranged thereon. The conductor ends of the coils are designed to be connected to a wiring arrangement, where the wiring arrangement has linking conductors, which are arranged concentrically to each other, are insulated electrically against each other, and have terminal elements to form electrical contact areas by which they are connected to the ends of the stator coils. The ends of the coils be connected to the linking conductors by separate terminal elements which have a first contact area for establishing a connection with the linking conductor and a second contact area for establishing a connection with at least one coil end.
