Power triggered automation is not executed

Configuration
1

Hi there,

I have an automation, which should turn off a Shelly Plug S during a time slot, when the power consumption, measured by this Shelly Plug S, is dropping below a value of 70 W.

Unfortunately, the automation is never triggered to turn the Shelly plug off. I am testing right now and have a power consumption in the device dashboard shown as 46 W, so it should be triggered and executed. The time slot condition is deactivated right now.

Here is the automation code:

What am I doing wrong here ?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

The automation is triggered only when power goes from above 70 to below 70.
If, e.g., you reloaded HA or reloaded automations and the power was already below 70, the automation won’t trigger.

Thank you @koying . I tested now and it worked, after I turned on everything and then went into standby, so that the power went down from 200 W to 50 or so W.
I guess the problem tonight was, that my time condition was faulty. I had the times given wrong 00:23.:00 instead of 23:00:00 and 00:08:00 instead of 08:00:00.
