Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices are provided for coupling a direct current (DC) pre-charging circuit to a motor drive. In one embodiment, an industrial automation device may include an enclosed module that may include a pre-charge circuit. The pre-charge circuit may pre-charge a direct current (DC) bus. Further, the DC bus may couple to an inverter. The enclosed module may also include a power input that may couple the pre-charge circuit to a DC power source and an electrical output structure that may couple the pre-charge circuit to the inverter. Additionally, the pre-charge circuit may be removeably coupled to the inverter and the DC power source via a sliding action of the enclosed module.
