Every 5 minutes, if a Sonoff POW device is on, Home Assistant will automatically trigger an action to turn on the Sonoff POW device. The automation involves creating a new automation in Home Assistant, setting the trigger to repeat every 5 minutes based on a time pattern, adding a condition to check if the Sonoff POW device is on, and specifying an action to call the switch service to turn on the Sonoff POW device.
