Abstract
A motor control system for selectively controlling power from a power source to a load includes a PCB structure and a power converter affixed to the PCB structure that is operable to provide a controlled output power to the load. The motor control system also includes a standalone protection and control module mounted onto the at least one PCB structure so as to be electrically coupled therewith, the standalone protection and control module further including a front-end switching unit comprising a plurality of switching devices operable to selectively interrupt and control power flow from the power source to the power converter and to a bypass path that bypasses the power converter and a back-end switching unit positioned downstream from the front-end switching unit and comprising a plurality of switching devices operable to selectively interrupt power flow from the power converter and the bypass path to the load.
