A method for selectively enabling flow of current to a load from an alternating current supply signal connected to the load is presented. The method includes storing a first time passing between a zero-crossing of the supply signal, the first zero-crossing indicating a leading edge of the signal, and a second zero-crossing of the supply signal, the second zero-crossing indicating a trailing edge of the supply signal. The method further includes sending a first signal enabling flow of the current according to a desired conduction angle when a subsequent zero-crossing indicating the leading edge of the supply signal does not occur within a second time, the second time being at least as long as the first time.
