Circuit topologies are the same as AC voltage controllers. But the back- to- back
thyristors are just used like a switch to turn the equipment on or off.

The voltage across the thyristor must be nearly zero when switching in the
capacitor, and the current of the thyristor must be zero when switching
out the capacitor.

The capacitor voltage will be always charged up to the peak of source
voltage.
The response to switching- out command could be a little slower
(maximum delay is one line-cycle).
