        entity_id: sensor.solar_power
        above: 5000
    condition:
      - condition: state
        entity_id: binary_sensor.wallbox_charging
        state: "off"
    action:
      - service: button.press
        target:
          entity_id: button.wallbox_start_charging

Dynamic Current Limiting

automation:
  - alias: "Adjust current based on house load"
    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: sensor.house_power
    condition:
      - condition: state
        entity_id: binary_sensor.wallbox_charging
        state: "on"
    action:
      - service: number.set_value
        target:
          entity_id: number.wallbox_current_limit
        data:
          value: >
            {% set available = 32 - (states('sensor.house_power')|float / 230) %}
            {{ [6, [available|round, 32]|min]|max }}
