Yesterday I experienced an open irrigation valve that with no obvious reason was turned on for 13(!!) hours. 11.000l+ of water were wasted. And it was RAINING 
Is there a way (automation maybe?) that checks for a state of a switch and after a given time automatically turns it off, no matter why and how it was turned on?
Or maybe I think too complicated and it is super easy to make already … ?!?
automation:
alias: Irrigation Watchdog
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: switch.irrigation
to: 'on'
for:
hours: 1
action:
service: switch.turn_off
entity_id: switch.irrigation
