NOTE
Bulbs controlled via ZigBee, but generally also via WiFi, turn on automatically when are powered on and stay on until they receive a shutdown command.
This operating mode can be very inconvenient in the event of a power failure (220vac or 110vac) because we would find them turned on when back the power.
To avoid this problem, you can create an automation that:
* keeps the lamps off during the day (see the example below)
* turns off the lamps at certain times during the day
Below there is the automation that keep the lamps off during the day
