Technically, this was unlimited in 2012 (and 2013), because there was no cap on the allowed number of drive motors in COTS computing devices.
You would hit the weight, cost or size limit eventually, though.
Section in full: K. drive motors or fans that are part of a speed controller or COTS computing device and fans included in the 2012 Kit of Parts.
There were also an unlimited number of certain servos and electrical solenoid actuators, which, while not "motors", do seem to fall into the OP's electrical concerns. However, it'd take some doing to compare them with a CIM, and I don't think that's actually what caused the referenced problem anyway. Electrical load issues can manifest in many ways--listen to Al (always, but particularly about the radio dropping out). But it's not the most likely explanation for stalling the same motor over and over again.
