An elevator machine assembly includes a motor and an elevator drive configured to control power supply to the motor. The elevator drive includes at least a plurality of converter switches and an energy storage device that is situated to be charged in response to the motor generating a back emf as the motor rotates in response to a torque applied to the motor when the elevator drive is not providing power to the motor. A short-circuiting module that is selectively coupled with the energy storage device through the converter switches selectively discharges the energy storage device to limit the back emf of the motor and a corresponding speed at which the motor rotates.
