1. A power electronics system for a powered system, the power electronics system comprising:

  • a first IGBT module, including a plurality of first IGBTs as part of the first IGBT module, electrically connected to a traction inverter in the powered system, wherein the first IGBT module is electrically rated for use with the traction inverter;

    a second IGBT module, including a plurality of second IGBTs as part of the second IGBT module, electrically connected to an auxiliary inverter in the powered system, wherein the second IGBT module is electrically rated the same as the first IGBT module, and wherein the auxiliary inverter requires a different electrically rated IGBT module than the traction inverter; and

    a plurality of first gate drives each singularly connected to a respective one of the plurality of second IGBTs within the second IGBT module.
