There's an article titled phase cutting that appears to be the same topic under a different name. I suggest merging. I don't know which title to use, as "phase control" is the title I would use...Ccrrccrr19:33, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, for me PFC means "Power Factor Correction", not Phase Control (Where is the F in it anyway?)
Is there any reference for this? Otherwise I would suggest to delete this abbreviation.

Is the animated gif accurate? It looks like it is rectified but it in't clear where the rectification is happening. If it is plain AC through a Thyristor, shouldn't it have a half-wave gap while it is reverse biased during the negative part of the cycle? Drf5n (talk) 17:55, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Here is my own animation of a phase-fired non-rectified AC: Animation of alternating current waveform, phase-chopped at various intervals after zero-crossing Drf5n (talk) 16:37, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
