Empathic Channeling
"Way to channel!"

- Piper to Phoebe

The power of Empathy is primarily used to channel other people's emotion, however, it can and has been used to channel the powers of other magical beings to where the channeller can use the powers themselves.

Phoebe's empathy power allow her to directly channel the powers of those around her, initially to the point of replication. As she gained greater control over her empathic ability, Phoebe demonstrated that she could channel the powers of those around her to where she can use them herself, without replicating them.

During a battle with a group of swarm demons, Phoebe displayed a more advanced control of her empathy power, channeling and deflecting the powers of six demons at the same time. She is also to the powers she channels from others.

Telepathic Channeling
"Hurry, throw the potion while I'm still channeling them."

- Christy to Billie.

A version of Telepathy used to enter other people's thoughts/minds and channel their spells while they are being casted, as spell casting is a basic power, and reap the benefits of the magic.

Christy displayed this aspect of her telepathy power when she channeled a spell that the Charmed Ones were casting at the manor from Magic School, so she could reap the benefits from that spell.

As demonstrated by Christy, it takes longer and alot of concentration to channel spells. This is because the channeller can not reap the benefit of a spell unless it's has been completed. It's unknown if a Telepathy user can psychically tap and channel/control another person active powers. They can, however, replicate powers.
