power command does not seem to do this. everything else works great! many thanks

what is your config.json for the switch you are trying to use to switch it off? There should be no issue turning a box off.

{ "name": "Sky Q OFF", "ipAddress": "10.10.10.213", "cmd": "power", "accessory": "SkyQ" },

if you remove the line "cmd": "power", this will add a stateful switch to HomeKit that you can use to either turn on or off the sky q box.
Let me know if that works and is what you're trying to do
