A stator includes a stator core, an insulator attached to the stator core, and coil wires. The insulator includes base portions respectively surrounding outer peripheral surfaces of teeth and an outer wall portion located immediately above the core back and extending in a circumferential direction. Each of the coil wires includes coils into which each of the coil wires is wound around more than one of the teeth by concentrated winding, a connecting wire connecting the coils, and a pair of lead wires located at two ends of each of the coil wires and extending from the coils. The connecting wire of each of the coil wires includes at least one outside-passing portion extending along an outer surface of the outer wall portion on a radially outer side of the outer wall portion.
