A system, comprising:

• a turbine having one or more turbine stages;
• a turbine support system, comprising:
• a turbine support component configured to support operation of the turbine;
• a motor coupled to the turbine support component, wherein the motor is configured to drive the turbine support component;
• an auxiliary component comprising a motor support component configured to support operation of the motor;
• and
• a first cable interface coupled to the motor and the auxiliary component;
• a motor control system, comprising:
• a controller;
• a power source coupled to the controller;
• and
• a second cable interface coupled to the power source;
• and
• a cable having a first plug removably coupled to the first cable interface and a second plug removably coupled to the second cable interface, wherein the cable comprises a plurality of conductors that are insulated from one another, the first plug and the first cable interface comprise a first set of mating motor connectors and a first set of mating auxiliary connectors, and the second plug and the second cable interface comprise a second set of mating motor connectors and a second set of mating auxiliary connectors.
