Motor control system for electric motor and method of use

A method of operating an electric motor, said method comprising:

• converting an input alternating current (AC) voltage at a first level to a direct current (DC) voltage at a second level lower than a DC-equivalent voltage of the AC voltage at the first level at a power supply module located remotely with respect to the electric motor;
• transmitting the DC voltage at the second level through an input power connector to an inverter module, the input power connector and the inverter module disposed on the electric motor;
• converting, by the inverter module, the DC voltage at the second level to an AC motor voltage;
• and
• operating the electric motor using the AC motor voltage.

A fluid-moving system, comprising:

• a power supply module configured to convert an alternating current (AC) voltage at a first level to a direct current (DC) voltage at a second level lower than a DC-equivalent voltage of the AC voltage at the first level;
• an electric motor configured to turn a rotating component to generate a fluid flow;
• and
• a motor control assembly coupled to said electric motor, said motor control assembly comprising:
• an input power connector configured to receive the DC voltage at the second level from said power supply module;
• and
• an inverter module coupled to said input power connector, said inverter module configured to convert the DC voltage at the second level to an AC motor voltage to operate said electric motor.
